This game is great! If you somehow never played this, it has my seal of approval.

Man I loved this game when I was a kid, it's a Boulder Dash clone with faster gameplay and powerups.

Great memories.

Apparently Rocks & Diamonds has a Supaplex level collection: https://www.artsoft.org/rocksndiamonds/levels/

Might give it a try...

Amazing! I'll check it out! Seems to be for the re-release on modern systems?

Yes.

Rocks and Diamonds is being actively developed for modern computers.

I haven’t tried installing level packs though.
