Let's try to survive "Boulder Dash" (PC/DOS) IBM PCjr/Tandy Graphics by First Star Software, 1984

You are Rockford, and you have to dig through monster infested caves in search of diamonds. In each level you must collect a certain number of these diamonds, in order to open a portal to the next stage. Enemies can be squashed by falling boulders, which are released when the ground below them is removed or they are pushed onto empty ground, but be careful because these can also squash you. In later levels, difficulty is increased by many puzzle elements and shorter time limits.

There are 16 levels to be completed and five different skill levels available, which affect the number of jewels which must be collected and the time limit.

Boulder Dash was originally released for the IBM PC and PCjr. in 1984 by First Star Software. The disk included two separate executables, one for the IBM PC and one for the IBM PCjr. The disk was a PC booter.
