Gameplay Details:

The miner begins in a maze, digging horizontal and vertical tunnels. Emeralds (often clustered), bonuses, and monsters populate the labyrinth. Digging under stones causes them to fall after a brief delay, crushing both monsters and the miner. The miner wields bombs to clear areas and eliminate threats. This game reimagines the classic retro title, Digger.
