Rockford
The cave explorer who digs through dirt, collects diamonds, and escapes falling boulders and enemies.
Study how boulders are supported before digging so you do not trap yourself or trigger a dangerous chain reaction. Use falling rocks to defeat enemies, but avoid setting them off in narrow passages without an escape route. Open safe loops and exits before collecting the last diamonds.
