This is the
freeware MS DOS section. Here you can find freeware Boulderdash games
that run in MS DOS (an Operating System).
MS
DOS (Microsoft Disk Operating System) is the Operating System software
developed for 16-bit Intel processors and shipped with the first IBM
PCs, and until the introduction of Microsoft Windows. DOS uses a
command-line user interface.
Because MS-DOS
was used on older PCs, the games designed for DOS don't work very well
on the modern PCs anymore. Especially Windows XP has a lot of problems
with them, because it does not have a DOS interface anymore. You could
try the
DOSGames.com Windows XP hints to
fix those problems. Another
option is using a DOS emulator like
DOSBox. That's a program to
imitate the old MS-DOS Operating System.
Below are the MS DOS
games. Download them and enjoy!

A
very basic Boulderdash clone without sounds but with animations. The
levels are different from the original Boulder Dash, so give this game
a try as well.
A
simple clone which resembles Repton a bit, with a somewhat queer story.
It is about Wendy, a mutant sized girl who keeps growing because of the
radio-active ingredients which Ronald McDonald has put in all his food!
You, as a very thin and skinny character, have got the task to take
away all this food, so that Wendy will be forced to go on a diet and
will finally become small enough to be captured! As a unique feature in
comparison with other Boulderdash games, you have different tools such
as a drill which you will come across on your path. Separately there
comes a level editor with the game.

If
you're looking for a PC version of Repton, this is a good game to start
with. It utilizes all the objects that appeared in Repton 3 and reads
original Repton 3 data files, so if you have some old levels, there is
no need to convert them for this game reads the level files in
perfectly. As far as I can see in the version on this website there is
only one bug, you can't die (but is that a bad thing? :) ). Sadly the
version here has only a dumb editor (for viewing levels only).
This
Repton clone was set to be one of the very best Repton clones around
until it came to a tragic end in 1999, when the source code was lost.
This game incorporates elements from both Repton 2 and Repton 3.
A

The game was previously known as Repton 2000.
Rock
'n' Spin is a game in the same style as Repton 3 or Boulderdash. You

you die and much more! The game was previously shareware, but now, it's

game around. In fact, this is not a clone but a game wherein you can

Boulder Dash, Emerald Mine, Sokoban (officially not a Boulder Dash
clone) and Supaplex you can play in this great game, you can also
select elements from the games Diamond Caves II and DX-Boulderdash in

Dash, you can have slime AND amoeba in the same level. You can make
your own levels with the integrated level editor. Load it by pressing
F1 and F11 in the title screen.
Rocks
'n' Diamonds (RnD) is absolutely the most comprehensive Boulderdash
game around. In fact, this is not a clone but a game wherein you can
play different Boulderdash games. Besides the four classic games
Boulder Dash, Emerald Mine, Sokoban (officially not a Boulder Dash
clone) and Supaplex you can play in this great game, you can also
select elements from the games Diamond Caves II and DX-Boulderdash in
the level editor. Versions above v3.1.0 are not for MS DOS anymore, but
only for the other platforms. Go
to Rocks 'n' Diamonds' own page!
A
very small and simplistic Boulderdash clone in ASCII. So the objects
are ASCII characters. The game was written in Assembler. The number of
required gems (here: dollar signs) are displayed in hexadecimal.
A
French Boulderdash game with a strange creature with bulging eyes.
Collect hamburgers instead of diamonds. The game has an option for two
player cooperative mode. Also, a level editor is included. Use the W,
A, S and D keys to control the character.
A
freeware German Boulderdash clone that only appeared as a demo
(probably it was never finished). It was written in QuickBasic. You
control an orange fish who has to collect rubbish. Some objects in the
game are: bubbles that roll upwards, steelwalls and shells (bombs). A
level editor is included.
Stone
Age is a remake of the game 'Flaschbier' (for the Amiga). It does not
have animations and it has minimal PC speaker sound. There is a very
basic editor inside the game.
A
clone quite similar to the original Boulder Dash, but this time with a
ghost instead of Rockford and with disks. 
Terra
Probe is a modern adaptation of the old Boulder Dash. You play with a
kind of ball through worlds with some interesting new objects you
didn't come across in the original Boulder Dash, like tenacious spikey
balls, zapper domes (change enemies into diamonds), hidden items, etc.
This
game, which is a very accurate clone of Boulder Dash, was previously
shareware, but now it's freeware. Very good if you prefer the
old Boulder Dash above the modern clones.
A
Boulderdash clone that was previously shareware. The graphics are
small, but fine. The levels can be played in any order and it is
possible to make your own levels with the level editor inside the game.
There is one additional levelset: Clamydia
by Wille.
The
MS DOS version of XBD (for Unix). XBD 2 has simple graphics and only a
few animations. Moving the character goes intermittently. The game has
a few sounds. There is also a time limit. But the game is funny to play.
The
Christmas version of Rock Rush. The main character wears a Santa Claus
costume, the boulders have been replaced by snowballs, etc. An
integrated level editor is also included.
