    Hi, I found a ProDOS version of Diamond Mine which appears to be freezing after completing level 1. https://www.apple.asimov.net/images/games/collections/san_inc_prodos/diamond%20mine%2018k%20file%20PRODOS%20%28san%20inc%20crack%29.dsk

    Thanks. I've uploaded the fixed version. The version in Total Replay works. I must have forgotten to update this one.

    I loved this game back in the rad 80s as a callow. I think I got up to level 10.

    I had an RGB card and a DIY cable with a SCART (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCART) plug. Together with a DIY joystick extension, this allowed us to play Apple II games on the big screen with colors. Diamond Mine was our favorite when doing so. Very nice memories :-)

    It was fun game! Back in the late 80's / early 90's I reverse engineered all the passwords, sadly which I've long lost. I was going to do that again but I see there is a great FAQ by Andrew Schultz that already contains them and level guides:

    Wow, 35 levels and then repeats back to level 1 with more bad guys.
