Dig For Your Life

Previous Next

In Digger (Visions) your only defence against nasties which invade your allotment is a pump. This prods the nasty, causing it to expand until it explodes.

If you only pump it a couple of times then the invader is only temporarily stunned, making a pip noise on recovering.

A more subtle way of killing one is to mine underneath one of several rocks on each screen, dash out of the way, and pray that it falls on a passing nasty.

The screen is neatly presented with score and number of lives left. Below is the allotment viewed from the side so that you can see the soil underground.

The occasional fruit or veget able appears, yielding a bonus if taken.

Animation is smooth, although with many nasties on the screen it can get a little jerky. The detail of the characters is excellent.

A fun game that would be appreciated by the keyboard basher who thinks there's more to life than Space Invaders.
