Logic and strategy are a must in this challenging and funny SVGA game packed with options, sound card support and stunning 256 color graphics!

The objective of Quarry is to maneuver your blue quarry workers to the other side of the board before your computer opponent (or friend) can do likewise with his own red workers. You do this by shifting columns of rocks either up or down which clears the way for your workers to proceed. When it is your turn to move, special arrows along the top and bottom of the board will signify the valid columns you can push. A column is only valid when one of your players is located in that column.

Once the rocks have shifted, the quarry workers will advance forward if they can. If a worker is located at the top of the column and that column is pushed up, then the worker will appear at the bottom after the rocks shift. The opposite is true if the worker is at the bottom of the column and the push is down, then the worker will reappear at the top of the column after the shift.

When a worker reaches the other side of the board, the worker will randomly reappear back at the starting column and one point will be added to the score box. Players continue to take turns shifting the columns, until one player can get 6 of their workers (or more depending on the game options) to the other side of the board and wins.
