Dig Dug

Dig Dug is an arcade game about tunneling through dirt while two monster types—Pooka and Fygar—chase you. Your only tool is an air pump that inflates enemies until they burst. Partially inflate one and it deflates back to normal if you stop. Scattered rocks can be dislodged to crush monsters beneath them. If enemies lose track of you for a few seconds, they turn into ghosts that phase through solid earth and can't be killed. Bonus vegetables spawn periodically in the center for extra points. The goal: clear each screen by eliminating all monsters without getting caught. Supports solo or two-player alternating turns.
