There are two types of enemies: Pookas (round goggle-wearing creatures) and Fygars (dragons that sometimes breath fire). In addition to the air pump, Taizo can also take out enemies by dislodging a rock and letting it fall in an open passage. Enemies can also dig through the dirt to try and eliminate Taizo. | |||

Dig Dig! is the fourth level in Retro Gaming, Wonderland-Style. It is based off the 1982 arcade game of the same name.
Origin and Differences
Dig Dug was developed by Namco and originally released on February 20, 1982. In it, the game's protagonist, Taizo Hori (sometimes called Dig Dug), digs through dirt to take out enemies by inflating them with an air pump until they burst. There are two types of enemies: Pookas (round goggle-wearing creatures) and Fygars (dragons that sometimes breath fire). In addition to the air pump, Taizo can also take out enemies by dislodging a rock and letting it fall in an open passage. Enemies can also dig through the dirt to try and eliminate Taizo.
In the Return to Wonderland version, diggable dirt is represented by Rainbow Coins, and the objective is to instead dig through all the "dirt". Pookas and Fygars are represented by Chompers, a Z-Bot, and a Coily. The Z-Bot and one of the Chompers can be eliminated with rolling Boulders, replicating the falling-rock mechanic.

Trivia
- The level's description in the Midnight Post is as follows:
Impossible to recreate with Wonderland elements (unless you know of a cheat code to give Stinky a handy air-pump?), we opted instead to play with another core essential of Dig Dug: opening passages into caverns filled with baddies, who will in turn begin to chase you. Chompers, Coilys and Z-Bots took the place of Pooka and Frygar.
