The Mine

Overview

The Mine is a 1-player Dig Dug clone for multiple systems.

The player tunnels through the strata deep beneath the Earth's crust in search of buried treasure. The player can dig in the cardinal directions, but must watch out for fire breathing dragons and man-eating tomatoes. While these monsters can't dig, they can turn into ghosts and re-materialize in a different location.

The player is armed with a neutralizer, which shoots a short distance horizontally and slowly destroys monsters. Running under a boulder will cause it to fall, which can destroy enemies or the player. Bags of money can be picked up for bonus points. The player must defeat all monsters before all the flowers on the surface wilt.
