Dig Dug is a 1-2 player arcade game in which you have to use your shovel to dig your way through the earth. Stopping you from doing this are two monsters, called Pooka and Fygar, who will continually chase you around. The only weapon that you carry is an air pump, which you can use to inflate the monsters to the point where they explode. (if you start to inflate them but stop doing so, the monsters will get turned back to their normal selves.) Furthermore, rocks are scattered throughout the earth, and you can use these rocks to squash them. If the monsters do not find you for several seconds, they will eventually get turned into ghosts, which are able to walk through the earth. They are invincible and cannot be killed. From time to time, vegetables will appear in the center, and you can get these for points.

You've got to defend your yard from a variety of pests in DIG DUG. Mini-dragons and creatures that look like red balls with feet and glasses infest your garden, and you must destroy them with your pump gun. When one of the pests get close, you can fire the pump gun and fill it up with air. As you pump air into your enemy, he rapidly expands until he finally explodes. If you don't have time to pump an enemy, you can dig a tunnel under a rock and have it fall onto one of your adversaries waiting below. After all of the enemies have been eliminated, you move to a new stage where more and faster enemies await. See how many mini-dragons you can eliminate in DIG DUG.

Dig Dug was never released on the ColecoVision. This game is a hacked version from the Intellivision to work on the ColecoVision.

Dig Dug is a 1- or 2-player game with a color raster-scan video display. The screen shows a cutaway view of the land, most of which is below ground. The player controls the Dig Dug character who travels through and digs tunnels in the dirt. The object is for Dig Dug to destroy monsters by pumping them up or dropping rocks on them and to capture vegetables.
