Dig Dug
Dig Dug is a 1-2 player arcade game in which you have to use your shovel to dig your way through the earth. Stopping you from doing this are two monsters, called Pooka and Fygar, who will continually chase you around. The only weapon that you carry is an air pump, which you can use to inflate the monsters to the point where they explode. (if you start to inflate them but stop doing so, the monsters will get turned back to their normal selves). Furthermore, rocks are scattered throughout the earth, and you can use these rocks to squash them. If the monsters do not find you for several seconds, they will eventually get turned into ghosts, which are able to walk through the earth. They are invincible and cannot be killed. From time to time, vegetables will appear in the center, and you can get these for points.

Description
Take up the role of Dig Dug, the champion of love and justice, as you
drill through the ground and defeat any enemies that stray in your path.
Clear the stage by avoiding and defeating the persistent Pooka and the
deep-dwelling but whimsical Fygars.
Hit enemies with the harpoon and pump air into them, or drop rocks from
above. Pass through inflated enemies, or defeat multiple enemies in an
adjacent passage for an even higher score. To earn a chance at bonus
points, don't forget to collect those vegetables that appear!
Keep on digging, and outmatch the enemies that dwell deep underground!
