What players say
Players praise Diamond Caves as a faithful homage to 1980s Boulder Dash and Emerald Mine games, calling it addictive and packed with levels. Many share nostalgic memories of playing the originals with family, but some criticize the clunky user interface that feels like a mobile port, and one reviewer notes an annoying "involuntary double boulder push" glitch.
