Boulderdash was a Rave way back in issue 1. Rockford returns with sixteen new caves supplied - and as many as your devious mind can dream up with the construction part of the program.

Using the kit is simplicity and you'll soon be designing puzzles to baffle your friends. If you didn't like Boulderdash then you probably won't like Boulderdash Construction Kit; everyone else can sit down knowing that you're going to have nightmares working out how to solve a problem.
