Boulder Dash
Does anyone else around here know these good old classic games called Boulder Dash?

I have played them since back on the C64, but those made for the Amiga were much better.

I have been searching all over for them, but I haven't been able to find them anywhere, and I can't get my good ol' Amiga working, so I can't play them there anymore

Well, I have managed to find one of them: Bond 1 + 2, but they're not as interesting as the others (I think I have about 40-50 different Boulder Dash games for the Amiga)

Does anyone know where to find them (I guess they're abondonware, since they're pretty old, and not sold anymore)

www.the-underdogs.org

i believe most of the old comps have emulators out for them now. i have the atari 2600 and most of the consoles, they came in a huge game pack i found in Korea.

try the specific computer's hobby sites, mame, or the underdogs.

There is a Boulder Dash game out for Gameboy Advance. It is not quite up to the original, but still a bit of nostalgic fun.

There's also "many" around for the PC, but they are all bad

Best Boulderdash game ever was Earthshaker by Michael Batty, which was released free on the cover of Your Sinclair just over 10 years ago. Anyone else remember this game?
