[h1]Felky Fun Meter[/h1] [h1]||----------| [0/10] Not fun![/h1] The digging felt annoying; the shooting didn't feel good; picking up items/ores felt tedious and frustrating; the progression was confusing. I didn't understand if there was some kind of story in the background or just supposed to dig and unlock stuff until bored.. Really didn't have a good time with this.

This title is quite disappointing. I am not interested in multiplayer games so I'll focus on the solo experience. I can see that it is a port but I can't appreciate any further. Digging is awkward and imprecise, the tools swing randomly without any kind of control. Player movement often feels like walking through quicksand, really sloppy. Shooting is not fun and targeting is not precise. The enemy AI is very limited. I found myself calling the monsters that kept walking towards the walls and spawning underground, other times I was surrounded by absolute madness and spammy flies; really unpleasant. Most of the player actions don't have any sort of animation. The clues to open safes keep disappearing and scrolling to get the answers is infuriatingly slow. Overall disappointing. I was expecting a humble version of Deep Rock Galactic but I won't dare to compare these two titles. This is the start of something that could have been a good idea but there is so much work to do before call...

I unfortunately cannot recommend this game, at least not like how it is. I have not played the first Cave Digger and I didn't play Cave Digger 2 on VR, so I came into this serious completely new to it. I usually play a lot of FPS and Action Roguelikes/Roguelites. I do occasionally play games like this, and I remember liking the premise of it when I played the demo during Next Fest. It was a neat little loop of procedually generated caves that you can traverse, mine, and upgrade your stuff to go deeper and discover more. At the core, this is a fun loop and it has potential. However, the state this game is in with how it feels and how it doesn't really tell the player anything makes it a frustrating mess. It essentially plays like it's just in the beginnings of Early Access, except this is apparently feature complete since it isn't touted as being in EA. I had a little bit of progress saved from my demo carry over to me playing the full version. I wanted to delete and start completely ...

Instead of bothering to fix the bugs in their games, they just keep vomiting out new game after new game.

Its a promising game port, yea its sloppy and pretty shitty at times, but it's a great port for a company that works mainly on vr games. Hope there's more bug fixing and improvements to come!

[h1]Rating: 2 / 10[/h1] The game feels very basic with very little to do and more like a shell of a game. You can unlock new places on the map which seems exciting at first, but its sole purpose is to unlock a new mine (if you have enough money to repair) and to unlock one kind of ending. It is just a big open area to wander around but offers little in terms of gameplay. Climbing a rope and then trying to dismount off the rope is an absolute hassle. There are even times of just being stuck for a few minutes when my character can't go through the hole in the ceiling properly. [b]Some good points though:[/b] [list] [*] Can still collect ores when the backpack is full and it will swap out any lower value items, if the one you are collecting is higher in value. [*] Each place and mine brings a new biome with different enemies and environment. [*] You can change the modifiers for the mine run (at a cost) if you don't like the current set. [/list] [b]Overall:[/b] Would [u][b]NOT[/b][/u]...

I got Deep Rock Galactic vibes from this. The graphics and story seem ok, but the interaction prompts can defiantly be improved (example, picking up fallen gold or mineral pieces) and the game play seem clunky. The instructive voice overs are an excellent touch and just need some tweaking toward perfection, I refunded simply because I just do not feel like fussing over this particular Early Access game since I have a mile long backlog of other games to attend to at the moment.

Great game I loved all the endings very fun to play never know what happens when you go into the caves 8/10

i love minors
