The beginning of 2013 was marked by the release of a number of interesting and exciting games not only for PC, but also for other gaming platforms. Sega, together with Double Fine Productions, which is the developer, presented a gift to all lovers of quests, adventure games and puzzles in the form of the game "The Cave".

"The Cave" - ​​this is how the name of the game "The Cave" is translated, which was released on January 24, 2013 on six gaming platforms, which is adapted even for Linux and satisfies the tastes of any connoisseur of good quests.

The only drawback of the game is the fact that it is paid. The price of the game "The Cave" on Steam is only 249 rubles and, you see, for good quests that do not come out so often, this is not a lot of money. Be sure, having spent money, you will not even think about it, having spent more than one day on an exciting journey inside the mysterious and full of secrets cave.

Detailed review of the quest "The Cave" 2013, only on the website

For those who will make a purchase on Steam for the first time (Steam), we will describe the purchase process.

The Cave game is new in early 2013 and is therefore easy to find on Steam on the main window. If you have difficulty finding the game, then you can get to it through the menu "Games" - "Adventure Games" - "The Cave".

Game "The Cave". You can buy it for only 249 rubles on Steam.

Before you check out our review of the game, or at least watch a video that demonstrates the gameplay of the game.

To purchase The Cave, or any other game on Steam, click Add to Cart. After that, select "Buy for yourself" and choose a payment method. Steam app very convenient when shopping. You can easily purchase the game you like by choosing a payment method, which are plenty in Steam.

The subsequent window requires you to confirm the paid item and the amount. Be sure to check the box "I accept the terms of the Steam Subscriber Agreement", because only after that the "Run" button will be available.

In our case, the game was paid for with Yandex money, and the process of crediting money was delayed for 15-20 minutes, after which a purchase confirmation letter was sent to the registration mailbox.

That's probably all, the process of buying a game on Steam seemed to us not so complicated as it seems at first glance.

The standard game installation process begins with the "Library" section, where you just need to click "Install". The game takes up just over 1.1 GB of free disk space.

Installing the game "The Cave".

The game, unfortunately, is not localized, and you will have to play on English language. Since the game is new, I think all searches for a crack for "The Cave" will not be successful. However, looking ahead, I would like to reassure everyone who is used to playing in their native Russian language: you can easily play without knowing English.

Only digressions and voices in narrative screensavers. The heroes that you have to control will not utter a word, but still they will perform all your actions, and you can even distinguish a key or a torch from dynamite without knowing English.

Time to start the game! The narrative, which cannot be missed, will have to be listened to the end, and only then will the choice of heroes be available to us. The game will have to play with three heroes at once, after selecting them from the seven available.

Click to enlarge! Consider the characters in The Cave.

Our choice fell on a lady in a dressing gown, a silly collective farmer and a knight. Each of them, like the remaining four, have skills peculiar only to them. For example, a knight can smoothly fall from a great height, a collective farmer can breathe underwater, etc.

It's a pity that heroes can't be given names, because we always give the name "GameAdvisor", showing our readers that we go through the game ourselves, and do not copy text from other resources.

The choice of heroes was spontaneous, you may choose others, but whatever the case, the game will be completed one way or another.

The movements of our heroes are very funny, only one knight in jingling armor will make anyone smile.

The graphics for the top ten, of course, do not pull, and the range of colors is a bit dark, although they fully correspond to the surroundings of the cave. By and large, you forget about the shortcomings of the graphics when you are trying to solve puzzles, of which there are plenty in the game.

Dark colors and shades in the game "The Cave".

Although the game has 3D graphics, it still looks more like a 2D quest platformer.

What I really liked about the game "The Cave" was the completion of quests by all the heroes. Yes, you can do something with one hero, but often completing tasks comes down to the joint work of all heroes. A very interesting and innovative solution.

Screenshot of gameplay from The Cave.

While playing "The Cave", we caught ourselves thinking that the gameplay is somewhat reminiscent of the game " Big Planet» for PS3. Perhaps, after playing it, you will also agree with the idea that The Cave is an analogue of the Big Planet, only for PC.

The action of the game, as mentioned above, takes place in a cave, but sometimes our heroes have to get out into the world and solve riddles in the castle, cellars, towers, etc.

The puzzles in the game "The Cave" are quite adequate and lend themselves to a logical explanation. For example, water dripping on an electric fuse is easily collected in a bucket, or wall collapses are removed with dynamite set on fire from a torch.

The dragon that guards gold coin(token) that opens the door can be passed by approaching it from two sides. One of the heroes must divert the fire-breathing dragon towards himself at the cost of his life, allowing his partner to take the coin.

The heroes of the game can die indefinitely, this does not harm the future passage, because they immediately resurrect almost in the same place of the labyrinth.

The dragon from "The Cave" kills one of the heroes.

The further our heroes go, the more difficult the labyrinths and riddles. It is very convenient to control the characters, even if they are on opposite edges of the labyrinth. Each of them is assigned a key on the keyboard for quick switching: 1, 2 or 3.

Quick and convenient switching between heroes in the game will be very useful, because sometimes moments decide the correctness and accuracy of the task.

The heroes will also have water barriers that they can easily swim across. But there are labyrinths where you need to dive while holding your breath, to overcome ornate labyrinths. This is not given to everyone, and here you need to think a little, although we have already said how to do this.

It is interesting to play the game, there are no delusional quests in it, which can only be completed by looking at the hint. However, not everyone thinks the same way, and some quests will be difficult for someone. For you, we are preparing for publication the passage of the game "The Cave", which in detail with screenshots will help you complete this exciting game.

Knight from the game "The Cave" in the underground catacombs.

Unique skill of the collective farmer - he can not breathe underwater for a long time.

Knight from the game "The Cave" in the "Circus" level.

We can talk about the game "The Cave" for a long time, but we are sure that all fans of adventure games will like it, where you need to think, and not run and shoot everyone.

"The Cave" is a choice for thinking players, players with an analytical mindset.

“The Cave” is a very long quest, spending almost 3 hours on the game, we managed to open only the first achievement, of which there are 26 in the game. I’m sure if you play The Cave without much fanaticism with breaks for sleep, then a month of puzzles will secured.

Another screenshot from The Cave quest.

Having completed the game with the selected heroes, you will certainly want to play it with others, because the unique abilities of each change the passage of quests exactly the opposite. The developers managed to keep the players after the first passage of the game. Alternating heroes, there can be several of these walkthroughs, and each will be different from the previous ones.

So let's start the game. The camera smoothly lowers, choose one of the 7 characters. Let's start with the knight. We run to the left and break the gate, then we run to the left. Now take a time traveler and a farmer with you. We run the knight further and jump down into the cave. Then we go down with two selected heroes (a time traveler and a peasant). As a traveler, we move the box from the right corner of the cave to the left, then we climb onto the ledge, now we drag the rest of the heroes to the ledge too.

We run to the wooden bridge and fall down the three of us. Then we run to the right and talk to the crying uncle. Next, he will give us the key. We take it as a peasant, open the door and jump down, then we go down the rope and run to the right. Then we go down the stairs. On the right there will be a small broken windmill, on the left there is a lever. We go down even lower, where there are vending machines with food, and use the lever to the right of them, change the hero and run to the lever opposite the mill, he will open the passage, and with the third hero we run to the left to the pile of bones and the monster. Don't get close, it can kill you. We go up and activate the sign drawn on the board.

We go to the right and use the old well. Now we climb to the left and use the car, but nothing will come of it. We switch to the second hero (any) and run them to the bell (near the pile of bones) and use it. Top activate the machine. Next, with the help of a knight, we break the well lever on the right, pick it up as a peasant and go to the damaged well, insert it, start twisting it and it will explode. To the right of the well is the sign to which we bring the knight. Let's activate it. Next, we go up as a peasant, pick up a bottle of water from the car and go down and run to the right and insert it into the generator next to the food machines and take a hot dog from the machine. Next, we take a hot dog with us and throw it on a pike to the right of the monster in a pile of bones.

Now we approach the vending machine with food, again we take out a bottle of water and carry it to the generator upstairs, from where we took it from the car. Now we activate the bell below by the peasant and quickly switch to the time traveler and turn on the car and catch the creature. Then we run to the left as a peasant and run up to the sign of the bear and all the heroes run quietly to the left.

We jump down as a peasant. We swim to the right, climb up and go down the stairs and even lower. We take dynamite, rise, set fire to the candle on the right and put it quickly to the wooden bars on the right. After the explosion, we take the reward. Next, run to the right and stand on the button that opens the door. Then we take the time traveler and go to this door open door, we pass and climb the stairs and take the skull in the treasury. Now take the elevator to the right, go up, then go up the stairs even higher, then go up again to the left and return the skull to the peasant, and also return to him the reward found by the peasant. Now we switch to the knight, run to the right, dive and swim out to the right and pick up the guitar and return to the uncle, giving him the reward. He will open the door and we can run to the right and read the inscription on the sign do not forget.

We run to the right, and jump into the gorge down into the water. Now let's get on wooden block and we go down with him, stand up as any hero except the knight. We switch the hero and go to the left, where we activate the sign of the knight. Now we go down to them and drag to the left, now we go down as a knight, run to the right and stand on the button. Now we take the peasant, we go down and also stand on the button, now we stand on the button as a traveler and open the door and go down, then to the right and even lower. We run through the gorge with fire, or rather we fall into it, using the ability of the knight - invulnerability. We run to the right to the king, we communicate with him. Then we run to the right, jump onto the rope and open the gate, then on the second we climb up and climb even higher, then to the left and even higher and we will climb to the balcony of the princess. We communicate with her.

Then we go down and run to the right, then down and to the left and down again. Here the dragon slumbers. Don't get close or he'll kill us. There is a bowl not far from the dragon. Next, take the time traveler and run to the left of the wooden sign with skulls. At the end of the path we find the sign of a bear - a peasant. Then we run to the right of the tablet and go down the traveler. Below we activate the sign of the knight and go upstairs. To the right of the balcony there will be a shooter, do not touch him. We need to get the key in the room above. To do this, we go up. And use the ability to move through walls. Then we rise into the elevator to the right of the clock, and as a peasant we run to the clock and turn the arrow. We quickly switch to the time traveler and jump into the right room, where our sign is.

We continue to play the game. So, run to the right and jump down the peasant, then down to the wizard with the pie, use it 2 times. Then we go to the button at the roulette wheel, stand on it and try the roulette wheel again and win a golden ticket, go down and go right to the cart and insert it. Then up and to the left and jump down. Here is the color wheel. We will return to it later. We take the wrench from the knight and run down to the gate with the duck, open it. We jump into the water and swim to the right. We swim out and run to the right, there will be a sign of a peasant. Then we go up to the left and to the right.

We run further to the Ferris wheel and jump into the cradle and wait until we can jump to the sign of the knight. Then we jump again and wait until we make an almost circle and there will be a bottle of water at the top, but we cannot take it yet. We go to the bottle to the right of the ring as a knight, and as a peasant we go to the generator on wheels. We turn off the generator and take the bottle as a knight and insert it to the left of the Ferris ring, take the sledgehammer below. Then we go down to the game with the measurement of the force of the blow with a hammer and hit it. We get a ticket and insert it to the right into the cart with the bear. Then again we go to the ring, turn off the generator, take a bottle of water on the left and move it to the right and insert a little lower, to the right and an attraction with a magic ball.

He starts telling us. Remember the color of his ball, the moment he starts telling us our fate. It is this color that we will choose as the one chosen from the color wheel, then we pull the lever, get a ticket and run to the bear, insert the ticket and get the bear. Then we carry it to the right to the exit, and wait6 until the scale is filled. Then we insert the last ticket back into the cart, take a lighter and set fire to the exit, after which we wait until the hay burns and run to the right. So let's continue the adventure with our friends. We activate the lever, then we jump to the stone and from it to the right. Then we go down and run to the left until we meet a grumbling old man. He will start throwing various objects, pick them up and take them to the right so as not to die from dynamite. We take a bucket, fill it with water at the top and catch grandfather's dynamite. Next, take the dynamite, set fire to it and put it on the pile of stones at the top right. Then we go to the right and activate the symbol of the knight.

Then, with the second hero, we again collect water in a bucket and catch dynamite. We set it on fire and put it near the pile of stones on the left. There will be a symbol for the time traveler here. We go to the knight traveler. We move the cart to the left from its left side and hold, change to a knight and activate the apparatus that mines gold, then send it to the old man. Then we go to the left, where there was a symbol for the traveler7 We first raise the cart to the right platform, and then with two heroes we stand on the platform to the left and with one we drag the cart to the central platform, which does not move. Now we place two heroes on the platform on the right and with one we drag the cart from the left to the old man. Then we find the third trolley and send it to the old man. In the third one, you will have to sit down yourself in order to choose the path on the left during the journey and the bridge will have to collapse.

So, we go to the right by the traveler and we approach the engine. We go into the time machine to the left and use it. We move to the prehistoric past. We run to the right and go down and to the left. Here is a prehistoric man. We help him roll a huge stone to the right until he falls. A little lower will sleep a huge dinosaur. Then we climb up and on the left there will be a stone that needs to be placed under a trickle of water on the right and switching to the player in the future we go to one of the heroes to the drawn dinosaur with the button.

We switch to the hero in the past and return to the other two, where the dinosaur is drawn. We activate the panel and now we all smell like this dinosaur. Now one of the heroes take a shovel and go back to the past (not to be confused with the present) and go to the dinosaur. See that the smell does not evaporate. He will fall in love with us and run after us to the left edge, and you, the second heroes from above, will drop a stone on his head. Sorry dinosaur. Next, we look at the video.

We take a recording player with a film and take it to the crystal monster and throw it nearby, and we go around it so that it throws us with its mouth, and then we jump on it with the player and it will hit us with its tail and we will record its roar. Then we go upstairs to the girl with the gun, throw the player nearby and turn it on, the guard at the gun will run away. We take a hot dog from it and go to the monster. We lure him with a smell on a fragile bridge and he will fall down. We jump heroes into the formed gorge. We run to the right and lower the boat into the water. We jump heroes on it and swim to the right. We swim to the mad old man. Then we run to the right, take the phone and go to the old man. We listen to his chatter.

On the right, push the blue box down. Then we jump onto the ledge on the right and run to the right and go down. Next, take the box and push it to the left, here on the right, take the yellow tin box. After running to the left, put the pipe in the missing area, right at the base of the cave. Then we go down below, activate the red valve and the water will rise to a sufficient level so that we can swim over to the left. Then we return to the grandfather and on the right on the ledge take another part of the pipe with four exits and insert it into the cave in the missing place. Watch the video for the end of the game.

The Cave toy is quite often compared with the famous Trine and The Lost Vikings. However, this is very approximate and most likely erroneous. This is a quest wrapped in the cover of a typical platformer - there is no action here, as well as combat abilities. Just a quest - and that's it, there is nothing even to compare with Trine, the dynamics are not the same, and the gameplay is very different. With the Vikings, there is a little more in common, also three heroes that you need to control - it doesn’t matter if you play alone or in the company of friends. But the Vikings have some skills, but they are needed there, and in The Cave, in fact, there are no enemies, there is no one to fight with.


The only pity is that in the toy the main disadvantage is just cooperative mode. No interaction, just pulling levers. Characters without tactical moves, just shy away from locations. In the Vikings, one covers with a shield, the other kills, the third puts it on obstacles, and the like. Here, lonely heroes just roam the cave together. That is, the impression is exactly the same if a friend lies on the couch and stares as you go through the game. And there is no split screen when you need to split the characters. If one stepped aside, the second will stupidly stand and wait. It turns out that half of the time is played by one, half by another user. Okay, such mechanics worked fine in Heroes, but here such gameplay makes you bored and alternately yawn at each other.


The plot is not bad, the design of each level too, the developers have tried, the monologues are not bad. The locations have been worked out, each separate section corresponds to the most popular and excellent games in terms of design. But with each transition from site to site, there are still locations that are constantly repeated. If you remember that there are only seven characters in the toy, then it is clear that in order to fully understand it, you will have to go through the entire game at least three times. For the first time, you may like the levels, but as you repeat, they will get bored and burdensome. Since you already know all the solutions to puzzles and puzzles, there is no point in going through them again, and no one will offer something new. It would be nice if they put a generator of random "branches" or at least just diversified the transitions to personal areas. Could at least put different riddles for each passage.


Okay, about the cons, you can move on to the positives. The story of the cave itself is interesting and amazing. The most good part in the game - locations defined for each character, which talk about the history of each, the characters are fully revealed. All stories are not only funny, but also make you think about how to play this or that hero. Everyone who plays will draw their own conclusions and get their own ending. Humor in the toy also takes place, not stupid, but rather witty. Voice acting at the level, the actors tried. Because of all this, in the first place, cons gameplay you can not notice, but noticing - omit and not pay attention. Each character solves puzzles according to his abilities, so you just run between locations on the machine to quickly start new tasks.


In the end, what do we have? A normal platform quest, which is quite rare in today's game industry. Fans of Viking mechanics will be pleased, the game is very similar. At the first passage, it will be interesting, but then repetitions of locations and riddles, as well as fussy running around with three characters, will tire you. The toy has low replayability, and this affects its popularity, especially for co-op. But anyway, The Cave will give you pleasure, it's just a pity that it will be simply impossible to extend it with repetitions.
