It's Dig Dug himself!
Mr Driller's dad!

After a productive morning with my Hyrox training, I'm treating myself to a well-deserved break this afternoon. Nothing beats a game of Mr. Driller on nds to unwind! 🎮💪 Ready to dig some tunnels and blow off some steam!

Mr Driller 2 (Switch): COMPLETED!

It’s Mr Driller only on the Game Boy Advance, only on the Switch. It’s missing the many game types and variations from later games in the series like Drill Land, but it’s the same gameplay and just as much fun as it ever was.

But hoo is it hard. The constant worry that you should just dash for the end rather than try to grab some air, or vice versa, when you’re low on oxygen. The all-to-easy way to miscalculate the outcome of a dig, which ends up getting you squished. The sections which seem easy because there are massive chunks of the same colour you can obliterate at once, but actually, you end up making air inaccessible or something. I wouldn’t say success is random – although the levels are arranged seemingly randomly – but it certainly feels like it sometimes.

After a million attempts at the final area, I was done. Phew!
