About the Game

Doubles Hard is a game inspired by a legendary production Boulder Dash, created by Peter Liepa and released by First Star Software in 1984. Unlike the original Doubles Hard game, diamonds are collected on a three-dimensional board. The player can move up, down, left, right, in and out. There is also 'grab' move. The use of the three-dimensional board has made it possible to design completely new levels that put the game on an even higher complexity level.

The two-dimensional version of Boulder Dash has been implemented in a huge number of ways and enjoyed well-deserved popularity. Adding a third dimension increases the level of difficulty, but also the satisfaction of gameplay.

Features of the gameplay:


  • 45 levels (and one extra)
  • All classic blocks available (diamonds, boulders, grass, lava, enemies, walls)
  • A new kind of block: the bomb!
  • Keyboard and pad support.
  • The first game referring to Boulder Dash, played on a three-dimensional board!

If you try, there will be chaos on the screen.
But this chaos is under control.
Under Your control!
