Revision as of 07:09, 25 May 2018
Blocks are the most common elements in Diamond Digger Saga. They prevent the flow of water and are destroyed when combos are made, either on them or beside them (once or multiple times). They take up a square (1x1 tile).
There are many different types of blocks, each having different properties, so a player has to deal with each one differently. Some are easier to deal with, some harder.
List of blocks
Blocker Name | First appearance | Unique properties | Overall Threat | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Ground block | Episode 1 Level 1 |
This is the most common block in the game. It can be destroyed by combining diamonds that are positioned ON the ground block once. | None | |
Broken stone | Broken Stone is a thicker ground block. It can also be called "Two-layered ground block". It can be destroyed just as ground blocks, but you need to combine diamonds twice in order to break it. | Very low | ||
Stone | Stone is the thickest ground block. It can also be called "Three-layered ground block". It can be destroyed just as ground blocks, but you need to combine diamonds three times in order to break it. | Low | ||
Steel | Steel blocks prevent the flow of water and the fall of diamonds. They can be destroyed only with Dynamite. A few levels require that certain steel blocks are destroyed to free fireflies or open the exit to the next board. In these levels the Magic Orb will offer the required Dynamite (e.g. Level 291). | Extremely high | ||
Mud block | Episode 2 Level 11 |
This is a common block in the game. It can be destroyed by combining diamonds that are positioned BESIDE the ground block once. Thick mud block is very similar to thin mud block. It can also be destroyed by combining diamonds that are positioned BESIDE the ground block, but as it's THICKER, a player must do it twice! |
Very low to Somewhat high | |
Frozen block | Episode 3 Level 26 Empty |
These are similar to mud blocks. They can be destroyed by combining nearby diamonds once.
|
Very low | |
Purple block | Episode 4 Level 41 |
Purple block prevents the flow of water and no diamonds on these blocks can be combined. These blocks cannot be destroyed, and therefore they can be very irritating. The only way to destroy them is using a dynamite or a shovel. However, purple blocks are hollow for diamonds, so if you match a combo under these blocks, diamonds can easily fall through them. | High | |
Lava block | Episode 7 Level 91 |
Lava Block prevents the flow of water and the fall of diamonds. Before destroying them completely, you need to cool them down by bringing the flow of water to them. They can be pretty irritating because, as long as they haven't been cooled down with water, they reproduce themselves throughout a level board.
Once you have cooled them down with water, they behave like broken stones, and are destroyed by two combos on them. So, to destroy them:

Frozen ninja | Episode 10 Level 151 |
Frozen ninja prevents the flow of water and the fall of diamonds. They can be destroyed by one diamond combo nearby. However, they explode afterwards and make a 3x3 square around them frozen - they change diamonds in this square into frozen blocks. Due to this fact, they can be very irritating. | Medium | |
Angry rock | Episode 13 Level 211 |
Angry rock, comparing how it's activated, is very similar to frozen ninja. Just as ninja block, it's destroyed and "triggered" by one combo nearby. Once triggered, it explodes and transforms a 4-way path in + shape into Broken Stones (see Broken Stone above). Due to the fact that it can block the flow of water even if you've cleared the way already and that it makes a lot of broken stones at once, this block can be considered very irritating. | Somewhat high | |
Mud bee bomb | Episode 14 Level 231 |
Mud Bomb is a special block in Diamond Digger Saga. It blocks the fall of diamonds, but doesn't block the flow of water. It has a count number at the top right corner. It represent how many moves are left until the bomb explodes. Each move, the number reduces by one. When the count reaches zero, the bomb explodes and does the following:
However, you can prevent the explosion. To do this, you need to bring the flow of water to the mud bomb, before it explodes. Once "watered", a mud bomb simply disappears. |
Very high | |
Mud ninja | Episode 18 Level 311 |
Mud ninja is pretty similar to regular frozen ninja. Both are triggered by a matched combo nearby. The difference is that, frozen ninja blocks make a 3x3 square around them frozen blocks, and mud ninjas change (correspondingly) 3x3 square around them thin mud blocks. | Extremely high | |
Angry ice | Episode 19 Level 331 |
Angry ice is pretty similar to angry rock (see above). Both are triggered by a matched combo nearby. The difference is, that angry rock change all the tiles in + shape into stones, and angry ice change (correspondingly) all the tiles in + shape around them into frozen blocks. | Medium | |
Chameleon | Episode 20 Level 351 |
Chameleons are a very specific block. The chameleon is sleeping 45 degrees clockwise from standing up. They are something completely new, totally different to all of the other blocks. These are the main characteristics of chameleons that you need to know: There are two types of chameleons:

Toy block | Unofficial Official |
Toy block appears only on Toy levels. It can be treated like 'Toys cage'. It can be destroyed by three hits beside the toy block. In that way, it can be explained like a 'three-layered mud block'. Once destroyed, it releases a certain amount of toys. They fly across the whole board, and logically, they land on tiles afterwards. See below[1] |
