Dig Dug — About this game
Dig tunnels beneath the garden and stop Pookas and fire-breathing Fygars with an air hose. Hold the pump until an enemy bursts, or undermine a rock and lure pursuers beneath it. Deeper attacks and well-timed falling rocks offer different scoring opportunities. This Game Boy release offers both the arcade-style Dig Dug and a separate New Dig Dug mode, selectable before the action begins.
