Play Burglar X Online
Pick Gukjung to headbutt your way through or Guksoon to swing a mallet like a maniac—either way, you’ll be punching, farting on enemies, and chucking bombs before some ridiculous boss wrecks you.
Burglar X is a 1992 arcade game from an unknown developer, a product of that era when side-scrolling brawlers were a staple of arcades everywhere. It doesn't try to reinvent the wheel, but it has a certain chaotic charm that makes it memorable among its peers.
You control one of two thieves, either Gukjung or Guksoon, as they brawl their way through a series of urban stages. The main objective is simply to survive the gauntlet of enemies and reach the end of each level. Your primary actions are punching and kicking, but the signature mechanics are the special moves; Gukjung uses a powerful headbutt, while Guksoon swings a large mallet. You can also find bombs to throw and even a bizarre move where your character farts on nearby enemies to stun them. The pacing is relentless, and the difficulty is unforgiving, with screen-filling bosses that demand quick reflexes. It feels like a messy, unpredictable scramble from start to finish.
