It's Panic! in a slightly more Dungeons and Dragons form. In
other words, instead of digging holes and letting beasts fall
into them, you dig holes and let wizards fall into them!

INSTRUCTIONS
Your stick-man is trapped on a single screen of levels and
ladders. A warlock stands on the top left, creating minions which
work their way towards you with the intention of draining your
holy power! When your holy power is gone, you die, so it's
generally not a good idea to let them get to you! To help you,
you have some kind of magic hammer which you can use to bash
holes in the floor. The minions are pretty thick and will fall
down the holes if you lead them to them. Some minions will die
from a fall of a single level, later ones are more resilient!
Care must be taken not to fall into the fires of Hell which burn
beneath the lower level, but on some stages the fire is the only
way you're going to get rid of the nastier minions! Your holy
power drains slowly, but you can replenish it a little by
collecting the crucifixes that appear at random around the level.
There is no end to the game, it just keeps getting harder and
faster until you're dead! 🙂
