Dig Dug Rev 2 is the classic 1982 arcade action game developed by Namco. You control Dig Dug (Taizo Hori) on a mission to eliminate subterranean monsters. Armed with a bike pump and a shovel, you must dig your own mazes through the earth to confront round red Pookas and fire-breathing green Fygars.
How to Play
The objective is to clear the level of all enemies to advance to the next round. You can defeat foes by attaching your pump and inflating them until they burst, or by digging tunnels beneath heavy rocks to crush enemies pursuing you. Use Shift to insert coins and Enter to start. Move and dig using the Arrow Keys, and use Z or X to pump enemies.
Tips
- Drop rocks strategically: Wait in a vertical tunnel just beneath a rock until multiple enemies gather, then step aside. Crushing several enemies with a single rock yields huge bonus points.
- Stun and run: Pumping an enemy once or twice temporarily stuns them without popping them. This is an essential survival tactic that lets you safely walk right through them to escape being cornered.
- Watch for ghosts: When enemies turn into disembodied eyes, they will move freely through the dirt toward you. They only become solid again once they enter an open tunnel.
