01 / ABOUT THE GAME

Dig Dug Online: Meet Burrow Voltage

Burrow Voltage is Retro Arcade's original underground action game. Every step opens a new tile, so the route you cut becomes the route both you and the creatures can use.

Ore pickups reward detours, but staying near a vent or creature costs a heart. Clear three shafts and use fewer hearts on the next run.

Burrow Voltage is independently created with original art and code. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by the owners of Dig Dug.
