Dig Ven is a classic-style arcade game distributed through Info-Mac's game/arc category. Per the original upload it is a two-player duel in which both sides shoot at each other with cannons - a familiar artillery-game premise transplanted to the early Mac shareware scene.
Two-player cannon duel
The archive blurb is brief and explicit: two players, cannons, and direct fire between them. It places Dig Ven in the long lineage of turn-and-angle artillery games, though the upload note does not commit to any particular variant.
Documentation
The author refers players to the bundled READ ME file for further details rather than spelling rules out in the Info-Mac description. As with many small game/arc submissions of the period, the included readme is the canonical reference.
