Saboteur! v1.00

Saboteur! is a 1985 action-adventure game where players infiltrate a high-security enemy base as a lone operative. The goal is to plant explosives on critical targets such as fuel tanks, generators, and communication equipment while avoiding detection by guards and security systems. Success requires careful timing, stealth movement, and quick escapes after detonation. The game uses a flip-screen isometric perspective with simple controls for movement, jumping, and planting bombs. Each successful sabotage mission increases the challenge with tighter patrols and more complex base layouts.
