Not a Remake

This is the exact version of the arcade game and not a remake.  Choose Classic Mode for a trip down nostalgia lane or the Enhanced mode with better graphics. Play through all 256 dirt-digging levels and test your skills with all new stats!

Rules and Scoring:

  • Destroy all the enemies on the screen in order to proceed to the next round.
  • You get 10 points for every section of dirt you clear on a level
  • Get an extra life after reaching 20,000 points, 60,000 points, and every 60,000 points afterward!

Difficulty Level:

  • Easy: Designed for beginners, plus you start with an extra 2 lives!
  • Normal: Tuned for PC casual play.
  • Original: Just like the arcade version.

Mode:

  • Play Classic Arcade mode, featuring all the original arcade graphics you know and love,
  • New Enhanced Mode with updated graphics and sounds!

Controls:

  • Pressing an arrow key or moving the mouse will move DIG DUG in the corresponding direction.
  • Throw the harpoon by pressing the Spacebar or clicking the Mouse Button.
  • When the harpoon has hit a Pooka or Fygar, use the pump to inflate it by repeatedly pressing the Spacebar or clicking the Mouse Button.
  • 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.
