Atari A to Z (Pete Davison) - 04/07/2022 |
In which I dig for treasure in the vain hopes of toppling a literally unbeatable high score. Let's Play! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UVDed4ZE0HQ |

@Neil - DataSoft never released this or any other game on cartridge. You must be thinking of Oil's Well or another game. |

Brings back memories, I had this as a cartridge when I got the my Atari (my 1st computer) when I was about 8 or 9, like #Gwobby has mentioned, once you get past as certain level (25?) it doesn't get any harder, I remember playing this till about level 98 before realising there's no end screen so just turned the Atari off and went for lunch. |

Similar to Dig Dug with some key differences, namely your mine fills up with water! Fantastic theme music. |
|
Fun game but flawed for the advanced player as doesn't get any harder after level 25 or so and so many extra men making it too easy! |
