Dig Dug is a great PC port of Namco's coin-op classic of the same name, ported by Atari. You are Dig Dug, an intrepid gardener whose soil is infested with pesky Pookas and fire-breathing Fygars. You're armed with your trusty pump, which you can use to inflate your enemies until, finally, they blow up.

- To pull the harpoon out from the monster, move DIG DUG in any direction.
Hints & Tips:
- Watch out for Fygars (the green monster). They breathe fire that can get DIG DUG from a distance and through dirt. Fygars can only breathe fire horizontally.
- Enemies are worth more points if you blow them up at lower depths.
- A vegetable appears if you drop two rocks during each round. The more rounds you clear, the more points the vegetables are worth.
- You can use your pump through small walls of dirt
DIG DUG Facts
- DIG DUG's actual name is Taizo Hori, which is a pun on the Japanese phrase Horitai Zo , meaning, 'I want to dig!' I bet you didn't know that.
- DIG DUG's son, Susumu Hori is also a famous video game star known as 'Mr. Driller'.
- The world record high score in classic DIG DUG is 4,595,010 points. I bet you can't beat that.
Dig Dug Review
- Review by Mick
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.

Pop Em or Drop a Rock on Em - Your Choice
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.

My light unseen (Somebody help) Break my fall, now carry me (Somebody help) My light unseen (Somebody help) I'm so unclean (Somebody help) I search within my ways I center on the dark within my veins But you never let me go I know hell is in this place So I beg for you to show My light unseen (Somebody help) Break my fall, now carry me. My light unseen (please, somebody help) I'm so unclean (please, let somebody help) I take back every word i said Every fault i laid in vain Tear this crown from off my head My repentance on this day (please, somebody help) 2x My light unseen (please, please, please, somebody help) 2x Break my fall, now carry me (god, god, oh god) My light.

Easy to Learn and Control
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.
Classic Graphics
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.
Don't Expect a Lot of Variety
The biggest limiting factor to this game is the lack of variety. Each level is almost identical. The number of monsters changes and the speed they move increases. Other than that nothing about the game varies. This is typical of older arcade games so if you are familiar with this fact it shouldn't be a problem.
Conclusion - A Faithful Reproduction of the Classic Arcade Game
Dig Dug is a classic and is still entertaining today. You will have to dig tunnels and plan your moves carefully. The easy controls and premise means that anyone can play and have a blast doing it. You will also be challenged as you progress farther into the game. If you're a fan of older games or like games that require a bit of strategy, Dig Dug is for you.
