Can anybody remember the name of this puzzle game? The basic idea was that the protagonist was a dim but greedy adventurer. He will keep moving onwards unless he comes within a short distance of a bag of treasure, in which case he will change direction to grab it. In each case you have a limited number of bags you can place in the level so that the protagonist can avoid all the traps, kill the monsters and exit the level. Also anybody know of a good site for similar free online puzzle games?

I knew I had played that game. I went looking through my Kongregate achievements to find it, but I gave up.
