Digger was originally created by Windmill software in 1983 and released as a copy-protected, bootable 5.25" floppy disk for the IBM PC/XT. As it requires a genuine CGA card, it didn't work on modern PCs. In 1998 a new version was created by Andrew Jenner which runs on all PCs with CGA or better and, whilst retaining all the atmosphere and playability of the original, has many new features, including:
  • Exit button
  • Optional VGA graphics
  • Recording and playback
  • Real time speed control
  • Keyboard redefinition
  • Gauntlet mode
  • Two player simultaneous mode
