wabakami I don't understand the webmasters' knocking of this game?

We had over 1200 games out in amusement centres across Central & Northern Ontario (Canada) in the 80's and 90's. Dig Dug was a slightly above average earner of which we had 9 in the end. It, like Ms Pacman and others were considered "chic games", very popular with females. Our most popular version was cocktail table models.

At least. The most recent remake I was aware of was "Dig Dig Deeper", and kept pretty faithful to the original while adding some nice elements, as well as being easy enough for my youngest brother to almost finish completely.

HailToNietzsche I remember that I played this one (DIG DUG) in the late 1980s on an ATARI 2600 and that enjoyed it very much.

I still own the cartridge too... :-)

Man_of_Mystery Dig Dug is one of my favorite games of all time. Although this CGA version of it does look like crap.

rev.zero Haha! Digger was one of the first games I was ever exposed to. I used to freak out when he died and the little tombstone came up.

The theme song rules!

stijnelijn Even for the c64 this was an old game, and quite a nice game i considered it. A little of pacman and a little of boulderdash and a little of wizard of WOR.

Killing the bad guys was possible for sure, with some nice tricks like making a long line going up to the stone so you could kill multiple guys chasing you with the stone, can remeber i did quite some levels in a row.

The cga version looks real crappy indeed.

Guest_marko_river Yes, game was more than fun on C64. I played it many times and it is definately above average game. This is a MUST TRY for every platform lovers.

Game is originaly created for arcade machines, but it was transfered onto every single computer or console there is.

I don't know how Seb missed killing the monsters. Well, mistakes has already been corrected. Only question is: should Seb change his review a little bit.

ccccc, Seb, pa zar nisi expert za ovakve igre ))

Whats with the ugly cga colors?
I remember this game much prettier than this.
Only on pc sound?

If you like this game then you like Digger also :P
could it be that you are talking about the colourful C64 version?

I love the game! Nice review and update Sebatianos (I am sooo happy he didn't really leave us ... [/b][/quote]
