Dig Dug II (Japan) is the 1986 action puzzle sequel by Namco for the NES. Unlike the underground digging of the original, this entry places Taizo Hori on an overhead island. To win, you must defeat returning enemies Pooka and Fygar by either inflating them until they pop or creatively using your jackhammer on fault lines to sink sections of the island into the ocean.
How to Play
Clear the island of all enemies to advance to the next stage. Use the D-pad to move around the island. Press A to use your air pump and inflate enemies, and press B to use your jackhammer on the fault lines (mapped to arrow keys + Z/X + Enter/Shift in the browser).
Tips
- Sinking a large piece of the island with multiple enemies yields massive points, but be careful not to trap yourself or fall into the water.
- Fygars can still breathe fire horizontally, so approach them from above or below when preparing to pump them up.
