Playthrough 006: The Cave

The sixth game I will be playing through is The Cave.

The Cave is a puzzle platformer released on January 23rd, 2013. Developed by Tim Schafer's Double Fine Productions, The Cave was created by Ron Gilbert, who also created Maniac Mansion and the first two Monkey Island games on PC in the early '90s.

I bought The Cave in the summer of 2013 as part of the Amazon Sega Fun Pack which was a promotional deal with several other Sega published games including PC ports of Jet Set Radio and NIGHTS: Into Dreams.

I loved the Monkey Island games when I was younger, and though I never got into Maniac Mansion I understand that The Cave has a similar game mechanic to MM where you have a pool of protagonists to choose from but each time you go into the game you can only select up to three.

We'll see how far I get in three hours spelunking in The Cave!
