Grab your lighted helmet, as it's time to do some spelunking in
The Dark Cave,
as this turn-based strategy game from 2P Games and Leaves Games is now available
for Windows
on Steam. It carries a 15% launch discount for those who take the plunge
over the next two weeks. Here's a new
Official Trailer with
a look, and here's a description to shed some light on what to expect:
The
Dark Cave is a pixel art, turn-based strategy game that mixes deck-building and
roguelike mechanics. Players must choose between three characters, each with 20+
upgradable abilities. The Dark Cave offers a unique experience in every run,
thanks to the combination of characters and abilities plus 20+ enhancement
effects (that have a permanent effect, even with different characters), 20+
potions (disposable but with an immediate effect), and 40+ relics (they give you
a buff only for the current run). Choose your combat style carefully to reach
the innermost rooms of the cave!
In The Dark Cave, players will have limited movement during battles, making
every move count. Anticipating enemy movements (and attacks) will be paramount,
as well as each decision between combats: do I heal now or acquire a powerful
new skill? Should I take that dangerous route and surprise my enemies even if I
die?
