Nothing less than a great game

An often overlooked classic point and click adventure game, although it can be frustrating.
The Dig is another one of Lucas Arts classic 1990's point and click adventure game, but this one was overlooked and given awful review scores, most obvious one being gamespots ridiculous 4.5 rating. The Dig starts out... Read Full Review

One of the best, and most memorable adventure games of all time.
If your reading this... please.. PLEASE do not take the Gamespot review to heart in the slightest. I live by gamespots reviews, however their score on "The Dig" is incredibly innacurate. I played this game back... Read Full Review

This is one of the best games I ever played. I agree with some of the gamespot arguments, cuz they are logical, as for
eg: Sterotiped chars and not so many escenaries you could want, but they did a superb job with the story. Its one of the most beautifull stories I ever "lived" with extraterrestrial beings. It is full of hope, ... Read Full Review

One of the best oldschool adventure games ever, incomprehensible undervalued by gamespot.
This game is considered as a real classic one (1995). It has great story (Steven Spielberg) supported by beautiful graphics running on SCUMM v7 engine. It's the first Lucas-Arts game with it's own soundtrack. Music used ... Read Full Review

Very interesting storyline slightly marred by myst-like puzzles.
I'm really surprised at the negative reviews this game got back in the days it was released. Honestly, it seems like everyone was so hooked on the comical atmosphere in every lucasarts adventure game to that point that t... Read Full Review

Gamespot's biggest misjudgment
Yep, this is probably the review, where Gamespot has been farthest off the mark. "The Dig" at the beginning literally leaves you stranded and on the edge to discover more. While you try to make sense out of signs and mys... Read Full Review

This game is an absolute Classic. It absolutely does not deserve the gamespot rating.
I remember hearing about this game coming out originally and it made me really excited. So I convinced my dad to buy it for me when it came out. I was only twelve or so when this came out and I absolutely LOVED it. I kn... Read Full Review

As almost every one who has written a review, I completely disagree with Gamespot. One of the best games ever.
Ten tears have passed since I played this game, but it is one of those that stay on your mind for ever. It could be hard some times, but it is really fun game. The story is nice. You are always expecting what's going ... Read Full Review
