Boulder Dash is a tough one, made from gold in Atari and Commodore, and the old school gameplay is definitely rocking. For the price you will also never have the laten: with a mountain in levels and a level editor, this will be a bang for your buck. This classic is still 40 years old and is now a legend.

A lovely time spent with an arcade classic; this game continues to provide decent entertainment to gamers young and old while not sacrificing legacy. Just don’t come in expecting a revolutionary change for a decades-old title.

Boulder Dash 40th Anniversary is a very welcome surprise, released in our opinion at a time when modern players demand a higher level of challenge than the "ready-made" fare of recent times. Helping Rockford is challenging, difficult, but rewarding and fun, even at the cost of trying a level dozens of times before completing it.
