The same game concept that proved to be unfading, but the appearance is brand new. This reworked version of Boulder Dash was created with true love for the original game. As kids we used to spend hours playing Boulder Dash and now that we have grown up to be pros we were able to contribute to the game on a professional level.
Butterflies, fireflies, amoeba, dirt, rocks, diamonds, gravity, the need to have logical mind and reaction skills — all these appeal to various emotional drives of a Boulder Dash player. All of them have been taken to the extreme in this new version of the game.
Experts did the game’s animation, music and programming. This is our way to show that Rockford™ is most welcome in the 21st century, and we are excited about it!

“ZX Games did some excellent work in creating this great Boulderdash game. With its totally renewed environment it has become a game to modern standards, yet it still catches the wonderful classic atmosphere of the very first Boulder Dash. This release now has become one of my most favourite Boulderdash games of all!”
“Today’s people, with their “strategies” and “3D-shooters” can’t even imagine what it was. For Those Who Remember, as well as for Those Who Want to Feel what it was — today’s Boulder Dash, with cognate pictures and sounds redone for large colorful screens and rich sounds.”
