The '''''Dig Dug'' universe''' ({{ja| ディグダグ | Digu Dagu}}, ''Dig Dug'') | The '''''Dig Dug'' universe''' ({{ja| ディグダグ | Digu Dagu}}, ''Dig Dug'') is a series of digging-based maze games. The objective is to navigate the protagonist (originally called Dig Dug, later named Taizo Hori) through an underground maze while defeating all the monsters on the board. Enemies, usually consisting of tomato-shaped [[Pooka]]s and dragon-like Fygars, are dispatched through use of an air pump. Other obstacles include boulders that fall when dug beneath, and fruit that can be collected for bonus points. In addition to spawning the spin-off puzzle series ''{{s|wikipedia|Mr. Driller}}'', elements from ''Dig Dug'' have appeared in numerous other games, such as cameos in some {{uv|Pac-Man}} games. | ||
