About this game
Rocks 'n' Diamonds combines falling-rock puzzles with elements from several classic digging games. Collect the required emeralds, avoid the hazards in the selected level and reach its exit before time runs out. The right-hand panel tracks the remaining emeralds, keys, dynamite and time.
Choose a level set and Start Game from the main menu. The supplied tutorial introduces the different objects, while Info Screen explains their behaviour. Arrow keys move the first player. In the DOS defaults, hold Left Shift with a direction to snap an adjacent field without walking into it; Right Shift places dynamite when available.
Setup → Input Devices → Customize lets you inspect or replace these bindings. The game also has its own tape recorder for replaying attempts. Move clear after placing dynamite and check the emerald counter before heading for the exit.
