Dig Dug matches fun gameplay with entertainingly slapstick presentation. The game's overall pacing works pretty well, with moments of planning and setup and then the payoff of either pulling off your approach or having to scramble to get away from the enemies and try again. I enjoy the little animation touches like the sprites of the monsters (or you) getting squished by boulders, or the ghostly forms the enemies take while phasing through the ground. Dig Dug is colorful and well-designed.
