Boulderdash

Summary

This timeless game revolves around a thrilling diamond hunt deep underground, filled with numerous challenges. Take control of Rockford and gather all the needed diamonds across 16 distinct caves labeled A to P, each offering 5 levels of difficulty, while finding the exit before time runs out. After every fourth cave (D, H, L, P), you'll encounter an "intermission," a logic-based puzzle that doesn't have its own cave designation. Rockford can dig through the ground and move rocks, but this comes with risks. If he is directly beneath a rock, he can support it on his head. However, if a rock drops on his head, it will cost him a life. Rocks cannot stack on top of each other or walls. If Rockford removes the soil beneath a rock, it will begin to slide. Additionally, there are several unfriendly creatures like fireflies, amoebas, and other hazards best avoided. Butterflies and other underground dwellers can only be defeated by dropping rocks on them. When defeated, they transform into diamonds that Rockford can collect. Once the required number of gems is gathered (indicated in the top bar), the exit tunnel to the next level will open. Success in this game relies on careful strategy and thoughtful planning.
