It's been 25 years and I still remember the levels like it was yesterday.

My father used to play it while the whole family watched... it was hypnotic... i have such good memories from this game, it brings me back to my childhood

This is a very very good designed and executed game, a true work of art, a masterpiece in its making.

My most favourite game 30 years ago. I spent hours playing boulder dash back in the 1980s!!!!

Best c64 game I ever played.

My favourite game on C64 ever.
I loved my 64, I got it for christmas. My dad bought it second hand from some guy advertised in the paper, with over 660 games. All on copied cassette tape of course :)
All those years I wasted playing that thing, and I never got to try all the games, because I would spend most of my time wasting months at a time on great games like this one

That was one of the best runs I've seen, reminds me of my good old young days as a kid, used to play it a lot, a very addictive game indeed, but it still remains one of my favorites of all time!

This game was one of the most pleasant surprises in my C64 days.  Super fun.

Ahhhhh the ruthless days of the C64. Games were so hard they scared you. These sound effects just remind me of how difficult games used to be. Good times.

I was ultra-hooked on this game in 1989! DerSchmu played it in the same ways I did in a lot of them, and some were completely different, but I was nowhere near as slick. It's fascinating to see how someone else solved the same problems I did, and it brings back some surprisingly easily recollected memories.

Oh my god, I played this game sooo much when I was like 4 to 6½.  I always had fun replaying it.  I'd come up with challenges like making myself kill all the Fireflys (Square Enemies) and collect all the diamonds.  I loved the sound effects.

Oh, man! Has it been 30 years already?
Man, how time flies.
Remember it like it was yesterday.
Well... maybe not yesterday, but not such a long time ago.

lol, i remember those diamonds looking like real diamonds

one of the best videogame ever created !!!

At here 10:33 that would not be me going back for them, he already did enough to clear the level, he played this level to perfection in the way he dug the earth out, well done.
13:10 the computer finally figured a way of killing the little bast***!
Well played ARNO I really enjoyed taking a visit to my treasured past, when I remember those days it almost makes a tear roll down, loved them and will always treasure them.
We should all appreciate the 1st days of gaming and in 100s of years time the 1970s, and 80s will always be remembered as the time it all started, and we were there!

Oh man, this takes me WAY back

5:20  I LOVED the levels with that goo-stuff

Does any one else remember just being stuck in between boulders and letting time run out?

I remember the "M" cave, with the thing that would grow and blow up the "Butterflies"

These higher level designs of the levels are simply ingenious. And solving them is extremely skilled also. Incredible to watch.
