You know, thats a heavy price point. On the other hand, this is the best game the Commodore64 has ever seen.

Too bad it doesn't state to have a classic feature where the sprites look like they're from ther 1984 original.
"The original Boulder Dash® is a pioneering interactive game" - just out of interest: what does a non-interactive game look like?

Like a kinetic novel.

Like John Conway's Game of Life.

Or, like the card game known as War.

Actually there are voxels and that are inspired by the original and those look nice (shown on screens). So do the sprites in the retro levels. but the default models not so much. Also the additional "powers" feel out of place.

dtgreene: Like a kinetic novel. - not a game

Like John Conway's Game of Life. - a simulation

Or, like the card game known as War. - if the players do not interact, the game does not progress

Who decides on these ugly art directions? The old Nintendo version has better graphics than this newer version.

True. Even Boulder Dash XL looked better.

Wasn't bringing "HD graphics" to games supposed to make them look better, not worse? =P

I have to admit that I am not really convinced by the "new" graphics either...

I loved original Boulder Dash but that "up-to-date graphics" looks so cheap!
