I used to play that on the vic 20 and on the amiga. Brilliant game, the one on the vic was typed in from a magazine and worked, which was a first.





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

If it's an old PC game try
http://www.the-underdogs.org
they do have a game called dig dug
http://www.the-underdogs.org/game.php?id=3772
but I'm not sure if it's the same.
Anyhow thats a great site to download free games to waste some time.
Some real old classics and lots of newer freeware/shareware. And they're all rated.
