    Spelunker (スペランカー) is an action game originally developed and published by MicroGraphicImage for the Atari 8-bit family of personal computers. Subsequent versions for multiple hardware were published by Brøderbund and Irem, notably, the NES version, which was been defined as one of the multiple kusoge for the system in Japan.

    The game received a port for the Sega Master System in South Korea through unlicensed multicarts. It is based on the MSX version, which manages to be slightly worse than the NES version due to hardware differences. It runs through the legacy video modes inherited from the SG-1000.

    Multicart appearances

    Notably, the ROM featured in Super Multi Game: Super 125 in 1 was already hacked before being converted to Master System, as it credits Screen Software (a popular MSX brand in South Korea) over Irem. The version featured in 128 Hap eliminates everything but the logo in the title screen.
