3D Tunnel is a ZX Spectrum video game developed and released by New Generation Software in 1983.

The cassette inlay describes it as, "Another fast moving 3D game from the author of 3D Monster Maze and Defender for the ZX81. Flapping Birds, Scurrying Rats, Leaping Toads, Crawling Spiders all appear live in the 3D Tunnel".[1]

The game

"Your objective is to reach the other end of the tunnel alive. You progress through the various stages by shooting the prerequisite number of animals. As your skill improves the tunnel will randomly meander. To retain lives you must avoid collisions with the walls of the tunnel and the approaching animals".[1]
