Reception

Шаблон:Video game reviews Boulder Dash-XL received "mixed or average" reviews according to review aggregator Metacritic.

GameSpot said: "Boulder Dash-XL is great when it sticks close to the original Boulder Dash formula, but an apparent focus on quantity rather than quality hurts the experience". IGN called the game "simple and fun" but said that "the visuals and sound don't deliver on the same level as the gameplay". GamePro called the game "an enjoyable ride that's well worth your time".
