🎮 Play Diamond Run Online (Arcade)

Diamond Run is a 1989 arcade puzzle-maze game developed by KH Video. Heavily inspired by the classic Boulder Dash, the game tasks you with tunneling through underground caves to gather a required quota of gems while avoiding deadly hazards. You’ll need quick reflexes and careful planning to clear each cavern before time runs out.

How to Play

Navigate your character through the dirt to collect the target number of gems in each stage, which opens the exit door. Use the Arrow Keys to move, Shift to insert a coin, and Enter to start the game. Watch out for roaming spiders and red monsters, as well as precarious boulders that will fall if the dirt beneath them is removed.

Tips

• Weaponize the environment: You can drop falling rocks on enemies to crush them safely from above.
• Watch your step: Never dig straight down if there’s a boulder directly overhead, as it will crush you instantly.
• Plan your route: Since dirt can’t be replaced once dug, avoid creating traps that leave you stranded with no way to reach the remaining gems or the exit.
