Play Digger Online

You tunnel underground scooping up emeralds while monsters chase you—sometimes you flip the script by grabbing a cherry and hunting them instead. Gold bags wobble dangerously before dropping, so time your digs right or get crushed.

Game Overview

Digger is one of those classic MS-DOS games that feels simple at first but gets surprisingly intense. You play as this little guy digging tunnels underground, collecting emeralds and dodging monsters—nobbins at first, but they eventually turn into hobbins that can dig after you. The gold bags are fun to mess with—knock out the dirt under them, and they’ll wobble before dropping. If they fall far enough, they burst open, and you can grab the gold inside. Just don’t get crushed by one yourself.

You’ve got a weapon, but it takes forever to recharge, especially in later levels. And those hobbins? They’re relentless once they start tunneling. The best part is when a cherry pops up—grab it, and suddenly you’re the one chasing monsters for a few seconds. It’s like Pac-Man but underground. The levels get faster, the monsters get smarter, and before long, you’re frantically digging just to stay alive. It’s old-school, but it holds up way better than you’d expect.


Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
