The Dig (LucasArts, 1995) is still of my fav space adventure game. Pixel art made it look outdated during the rise of 3D graphics, but now it makes it timeless.

Credits rolled on The Dig! Lots to like there.

It has such a memorable atmosphere. The intro feels like itโ€™s straight out of a mid 90s sci-fi summer blockbuster, the music and voice acting all adding to the effect. Couple of dud puzzles in there but the beautiful hi-res pixel art (for the time at least!) carries you through.

So glad ScummVM has Android support, installed this and Blade Runner from Westwood, two childhood games that are better on a tablet then on a huge screen now. It's also fun to tap these with a stylus, has a new feel to it, strangely fitting + And just also found out HoMM3 has an Android port too!
