  • Export saves: export the savegame files from your browser, so you can switch to another browser or computer. You can also use them in an emulator installed on your computer.
  • Import saves: import savegames that you exported before with the Export saves button.
  • Download disk: export the whole game from your browser, with all your savegames. Useful to switch to an emulator installed on your computer.
  • Reset game files: if you somehow messed up the game files, you can reset them to an exact copy of the original.
  • Reset saves: delete all savegames from your browser. We recommend that you export them first: there is no turning back!
Import saves?

The saves in the zip file replace your saves that have the same name. If the game runs, it starts again.

Reset game files?

This puts back all the files that the game came with, also the files that you deleted or changed. Files that the game made, such as saves, stay. If the game keeps a save in one of its own files, that save is lost. If the game runs, it starts again.

Delete your saves?

This deletes all your saves and all your changes to this game. You cannot undo this. To keep a copy, export your saves first. If the game runs, it starts again.

You actually want to go to www.digger.org and download the Windows version. Then run the windig.exe.
You will be running the 100% faithful ported version with improvements, such as speed control (keys + and -), able to save your game (full game only), or replay saved games (a must to get the pro training). There is a couple bugs when loading replay files or playing custom levels, but the gameplay is 100% bug free - yes, I know that because I have been playing the shit for the last 15 years and counting. Works on Windows XP, 2000, Windows 7, Windows 10 - I've played on all of them :-)
The only advantage of runing the emulator here is that you can run on a Mac, but the results will be sub-par as timing is vital in this game.

The default from digger.zip doesn't work but digger.exe from the other two zip files plays OK on my PC. Brings back old memories playing it on the original 4.77MHz IBM PC.

This is a really old game so you need to make the dosbox emulate a really old machine. Edit the dosbox config:
[dosbox]
machine=cga

[cpu]
cycles=500
