Boulder Dash EX is an action-puzzle video game developed by Tokyo-based Vision Works and published by Kemco for the Game Boy Advance in September 2002.[5] It is part of the Boulder Dash series and a remake of the arcade version of Boulder Dash.[6][7]
The objective of the game is to burrow through tunnels collecting gems without causing rocks and other things to crush the player character. Over 60 puzzles are included in the game.[8] Three modes are featured in the game: "EX Game" mode is an updated version of the game, with new enemies, items, and anime-style cutscenes between levels featuring the player character, Alex, embarking on a quest to rescue his friend Sonya from the Dark King. The "Classic Game" mode features the entire original arcade game, and the multiplayer "Battle Mode" allows up to four players to compete simultaneously using a link cable.[1][8]
