Boulder Dash 40th Anniversary Reviews
Boulder Dash 40th Anniversary Edition is not everything that fans could have hoped for. What should have been a wonderful celebration of a classic series turns out to be a middling package marred by a lack of control options and default controls that don’t offer the best experience. Getting rid of the classic game progression system and failing to include a proper leaderboard system really limit the potential of what could be otherwise one of the most comprehensive collection of caves for a decent introduction to the franchise for newcomers. Thankfully, the classic Boulder Dash formula remains as addictive as ever and is executed competently here.
It's time to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Boulder Dash!
From excellent retro recreations to fun newer stages, there’s tons of tricky brainstorming puzzles to solve in this game, easily being the best set of Boulder Dash levels on Switch to date. It’s just a shame the performance is a little wonky still.
