A recursive query (which by the way is the default setting in dig) has nothing to do with returning subdomains.
If a DNS server does not have the requested information when it receives a recursive query, it queries other DNS servers until it gets the information, or until the query fails.

SCAVENGER(6) Games Manual SCAVENGER(6)
NAME
scavenger - a plattform game for X
SYNOPSIS
scavenger
DESCRIPTION
Scavenger is like Lode Runner. You've got to run around gathering objects while avoiding enemies. You can dig down through some of the
blocks to get at buried objects. After you've collected everything, ladders may appear. To finish the level you've got to exit through the
top of the screen. If an enemy falls into a dug brick, he is stunned for a while. If the brick fills in with him in it, he is killed, and
he will reappear at the top of the screen.
This version has a level editor for designing your own levels, and a graphics editor for drawing your own artwork.
OPTIONS
This command has no options.
GAME CONTROLS
The default control is with the number pad keys 4-9:
Dig left Move up Dig right
7 8 9
4 5 6
Move left Move down Move right
As of version 1.3 you can remap the controls. In demo mode hit space to get to the menu, then hit F10 to remap the keys. For each key if
you hit escape the key is unchanged.
F8 Skip to next level k Kill player (useful if he's trapped) ESC Exit back to demo mode Pause Pause game
