Boulder Dash Episode IV: Rockford Return

The third episode of the Boulder Dash series seemed a good place to stop. After all, shouldn’t 288 levels be enough even for the most hardcore fans? Well, apparently it’s not. The success of the third episode obliged us to go on. This fourth installment has 32 caves dug from long forgotten versions of the original Boulder Dash, and new background music as well. Rockford returns to take you to new adventures. Diamonds, flies, the amoeba — who are we to tell you what Boulder Dash is about?
