Dig Dug

Become Dig Dug, the champion of love and justice, as you drill up, down, left, and right, defeating any enemies in your path. Avoid the persistent Pooka and the deep-dwelling but whimsical Fygar as you defeat all the enemies in order to clear each stage. Defeat enemies by hitting them with the harpoon and pumping air into them or by dropping rocks on them from above. Recieve bonus points by getting the vegetables that appear in the middle of the stage. Receive high points for defeating deep-dwelling enemies or by defeating Fygars from the side with the harpoon. Pass through inflated enemies or defeat enemies in an adjacent passage for an even higher score. Lure multiple enemies and defeat them with a single rock from above in this thrilling action arcade classic! Dig Dug was not previously released on the NES outside of Japan before being released for the Wii Virtual Console in 2008.
