Preordering information for the release of Atari 5200 Boulder Dash® by First Star Software® Inc. has been posted to the Atari2600.com News (http://atari2600.com/news.php) page.

Boulder Dash® is the ultimate underground journey, but be forewarned- nothing less than perfection is required. Boulder Dash® will challenge your mind and reflexes like no other game! The objective of Boulder Dash® is to search through each cave and collect its many jewels in as short a time as possible. Once the indicated amount of jewels have been collected, the door to the mysterious escape tunnel is revealed and, you go on to the next cave. Strategy and planning will help you master the physics of Boulder Dash®. Boulders drop predictably enough but you and Rockford™ also have to block amoebas, transform butterflies, outmaneuver fireflies and overcome other numerous obstacles. Boulder Dash® is already a video game classic and now it's available for the first time on your favorite Atari 5200 SuperSystem.

There have been several "new" 5200 games released in the past few years... it must be getting close to 10 in number. Check www.atariage.com

It's about time 5200 gamers got a great game like Boulder Dash which, after all, was popular on Atari computers.
