Description Tunneler

One of the first really good two-player games, Tunneler is best described as the multiplayer version of Digger: two players (using the same keyboard, i. e. hotseat mode) each control a tank that starts at their own base at a random location on the screen, deep underground.

The goal is to dig a path through the ground to find the other player and - you guessed it - blow their tanks to smithereens. Of course, this is easier said than done, as it takes some time to figure out where you are in relation to your opponent. You also have to pay attention to some real-world concerns, like fuel: getting back to your base is the only way to refuel in this game.

Even with the primitive EGA graphics, it's the gameplay that counts, and Tunneler has it in spades. Even today it is one of the best split-screen games designed for two players. Highly recommended.
