Choose Classic Mode for a trip down nostalgia lane or the Enhanced mode with better graphics. Play through all dirt-digging levels and test your skills with all new stats! In Dig Dug you must dig tunnels to lure in enemies. Once you have successfully maneuvered the enemies in, you have to finish them off with your air pump.
That's right, in this game your weapon of choice is an air pump. This game will have you digging tunnels to avoid enemies that include fire breathing dragons and Pooka. Dig Dug is entertainment for the whole family. In this game your objective is simple, kill all the monsters in the level. Completing this task gets harder and harder as you move farther into the game. Each level adds more monsters that move much faster.
There are two types of monster: Pooka a round monster with big yellow goggles and Fygar the fire breathing dragon. Defeating monsters is accomplished in one of two ways: you can inflate them until they burst with you air pump or you drop rocks on them. There are a limited number of rocks on each level and they must be carefully timed to hit an opponent. Points are scored for killing monsters and for digging tunnels. The deeper you are on the screen the more points you are awarded, you also will receive more points for killing a monster with a rock.
Controls for this game are really easy. The arrow keys control movement and the space bar operates your air pump. Each level starts with Dig Dug in the center and an increasing number of monsters in various pre-dug tunnels. The monsters will stay in these tunnels for a short time, but eventually they will turn into ghostly eyes and will float through the dirt towards you.
This can be used to your advantage since you can lure them into tunnels that you have set up so that you can kill them. The last monster on each level will attempt to flee by making its way to the surface and running off screen. Losing this monster doesn't lose the mission but you also don't receive the points for that monster.
The graphics in this game vary. There are two modes available: Classic mode and Enhanced mode. Classic mode uses the graphics as they were when the game was created. These graphics are more grainy, but preserve the original nature of the game. Enhanced mode is slightly more crisp and the colors are brighter.
Neither set of graphics is even close to modern standards, but they aren't supposed to be. The sound is also the same as the original game. Every time you move you make a sound. When you have to move all over the level over and over again that sound can get very very annoying.
While the sound can be turned off, it would be nice if it wasn't so repetitive. We may have multiple downloads for few games when different versions are available.
