Are you a bad enough dude to rescue this article?

Dig Dug is a game about digging holes and turning grotesque monsters into even more grotesque balloons. POP!

Easter Egg#

Who could tell?

In Service Mode, keep Button 1 pressed and press Up (×6), Right (×3), Down (×4), Left (×8). If done correctly, "© 1982 NAMCO LTD." will appear on-screen.
