About Gravedigger

Gravedigger is a DOS title where players control Samuel, a gravedigger drawn to the wealth rumored to be inside the Loodam Crypts. The gameplay involves navigating levels from a top down perspective, with a primary objective of gathering jewels and subsequently locating an exit.

Level navigation presents a challenging mix of action and puzzle solving. Players must avoid hazards and hostile creatures, some of which can be dispatched with a shovel while others are more resilient. Progression often depends on solving environmental puzzles, which typically involve operating switches in a specific sequence and obtaining keys.
