  This is a really fun game, though not for everyone. It's more relaxing than intense with edge of your seat excitement. It's actually pretty hard to die, and as a rouge lite the only penalty is that you start over in the village as if the run had never happened. The fun is in leveling, managing resources, and seeing how far you can push yourself each run. That being said, the inventory system, especially alchemy, is pretty glitchy. It doesn't keep track of like potions very well, sometimes won't let you sell items (you can click on them and it makes the usual sales transaction noise, but you don't lose the items or get any gold), and can sometimes crash if you use potions that have identical effects but are stacked separately. This only occurs if you have lots of items, and doesn't make the game unplayable, but I would really like to see it fixed. If I could rate this game on a 1 to 100 scale I'd give it a 65.

  I've been so impressed by the staying power of this little dungeon crawler! I first played it free on Kongregrate ages ago, and found myself missing it when I started getting into newer roguelites. It was an instant purchase when I found it was on steam, and haven't regretted it for a second! Elegant roguelite mechanics -- each run, you only keep certain marked artifacts, while others only benefit your current run. You can enchant gear with items found during the run for bonuses. Long-term, combat is a battle of attrition balancing rewards from enemies vs cost of HP/MP to fight them. Strategic gameplay is rewarded without being required -- you can just do shorter runs of brute force if you're in the mood for that. I always feel like dying was either clearly my fault (greed + hubris + if I can just survive that one enemy there might be a potion in that chest...) or else a well-fought risk. Personally, I do find myself enjoying the earlier levels more than the later, so often find myself starting new files after getting about halfway through. Good news is, there's plenty of different ways to play as well as different modes and challenges to try out. If I get frustrated or annoyed trying to balance all the different equipment options I've collected, I'll try out a Green Goo's quest where you only have 2 item slots. If I get bored with the progression speed, I'll play a Monster's Lair run where there are drastically more monsters (which means more EXP!). And sometimes, I just want to switch between a defensive/survival playstyle and an aggressive, damage-first style, or an enchanting/magic based one. There's plenty of depth in any and all of them to keep me entertained. 9/10, no-brainer purchase for $10!

  This game has huge nostalgia factor for me, it reminds me of Lufia 2 Rise of the Sinistrals Ancient Cave, that game was fantastic SNES game and The Enchanted Cave 2 is a great choice it scratch that same itch. (this game has a mobile version as well.) If your looking for a dungeon crawler, treasure hunting, RPG, this is the game for you it has so much to offer in such a tiny package. ::To the Developer of this game:: Your very talented at making games like this and it would be amazing if you continued to make games of this sort, I know it would be a lot of work but I really like how your mind works and I felt like you should know your efforts are very much appreciated.

  Enchanted cave 1 and 2 are the ultimate Dungeon Crawler/Rogue Like experience for me, and with enchanted cave 2 compared to 1 the experience went to a whole new level. The sequel adds better graphics, a larger, more interesting dungeon to explore, and a improved inventory screen and special attack system. The story is more interesting and we have a town with NPCs. The progression tree will allow you to become a mage, warrior, alchemist, or a mix of skills. Craft potions, enchant your equipment and discover secret areas, all while learning more about the cave. And you can now step over empty cloth sacks! The most unique and fun feature in the game, in my opinion is the fact that you have to go in the cave several times to get deeper each time using the escape wings at the right time. All floors are randomly generated so not 1 run will be the same. The feeling of getting further each time you enter is a very good experience for me. After you beat the game NG+ will offer a new challenge. Having played the flash and android version for dozens of hours I highly advice anyone who loves rpg/rogue like games to give it a try.

  I played the sh*t out of the first one on some random flash game site that i don't remember. And i must admit i was quite excited when i saw the second one poppin' up on steam. If you ever played Lufia 2 - Rise of the Sinistrals on the SNES you should know the Ancient Cave - the optional dungeon of that game. Enchanted Cave follows the same principle. You explore a cave with 99 floors where you will only be able to go further down, not up again. Every floor is filled with monsters and treasure and you must try to find good equipment and fight you way through. If monsters get to strong you can teleport out of the cave with a special item you have to find - but you will lose all equipment you found except for special artifact gear which you are allowed to start with at your next run. Every 10 floors you reach a checkpoint, meaning you can start your next run from there once discovered. Occasionely you will find a shop (usually on said 10th floors) where you can sell your crap and buy useful stuff. What i really enjoy compared to the first game is the implementation of a crafting system. You can't craft your own gear but improve the stuff you found for some extra stats or nice things like life regen. I also like the new dungeon layout. The floors are no longer plain squares with walls drawn within them which is nice. There is also some sort of skill tree now which i guess could have been more interesting than it is. The magic path is nice since you learn your spells there now instead of finding them but everything else is just minor stat improvment. Some of the villagers will give you quests that so far only consisted of finding specific things in the cave. Not the most interesting thing to do but it's alright for a little extra stuff to do. Summary: Some nice improvements over the first game. If you like rouge-lite dungeon crawling i highly recommend this one to you. The price tag is fair since i think you will at least get 10-12 hours out of it to complete it once and replayability is given for perfectionists.

  At the start the game is interesting, the system is simple but funny, it's like a roguelike but easier. The problem comes when you reach floor 30 where you start to feel that you are playing exactly the same but with bigger numbers. You have a skill tree but the gameplay is too simple and the only thing that you do is kill weak monsters that can't do damage and farm the same items with more stats, to make the next monsters weak so you can repeat. Different monsters doesn't need different strategies to kill them, they are more or less the same with different skin, damage and hp. If you love roguelikes, you will play this games for 3-4 hours and then you will leave it. If you are new in roguelikes, this game can be a good starting point, but it's below average.

  All have to say is that this game is awesome! It was games like these that I used to skip school and play on my NES. I can believe the level of excitement I feel when I find things like my first golden sword with fire damage. There is a lot to do in the game. All kinds of crafting possibilities and a totally open skill tree. Its a rouge like but if you die you just start off to where you were before you went into the cave. There is 100 levels and its different every time you go back in. Its the best 5$ I have ever spent on steam.

  It's kinda like a cross between Desktop Dungeons and other Roguelikes. Enemies stay in place, and you can challenge them as you please, though obviously some you NEED to fight in order to get to the next floor. Along the way, you'll earn gold and experience as you gain levels and kill enemies, and you can loot bags/crates/chests for items and equipment along the way, and collect Stat Gems that permanently increase Stats. When it comes to equipment, they come in 2 type: regular and artifact. Normally when you die in the dungeon, you'll lose ALL progress you made on that run. However there's an item called the Escape Wings, which will not only return you to the town, but will let you keep all experience and levels earned, along with all gold and Artifacts and Stat Gems collected. When you escape, all regular items are lost/destroyed, while Artifacts are kept. Whenever you gain a level, you get to choose 1 stat to permanently increase, and recieve 3 skill points to spend on the Skill Tree. The Skill Tree for the most part are passives, like increased damage, defense, magic, mana, health, etc.. Though there are Spell to get on the Skill Tree that are kept between dungeon runs. Spells like fireball and the like, though there's a few other utility spells, like one that will turn a regular item into an Artifact. There are 100 levels in the dungeon, and every 10 levels is a shop to sell your stuff. When you make it to a shop, you'll be able to start your next run on the [i]previous[/i] shop. So, if I made it to the shop on Dungeon Level 20, that means all future runs I have the option of starting on Dungeon Level 10. There's are pluses to starting at the beginning or an earlier level, like having time to collect money and items, which is useful if you're low on gold. There's some other side stuff to do, like quests and secret areas that I won't go anymore into. My only real gripe is that you can't rebind keys. It's just a personal preference, but I like to keep my fingers planted on the WASD area, so being able to put the Inventory key on "F" instead of "I" would be a nice touch. You can also play the game using only the mouse, which works great, though Keyboard works just as nicely. I definitely recommend this game to anyone who wants a casual roguelike and/or RPG.

  There's nothing here that makes this version stand out above the free flash version published a while ago. I definitely wouldn't mind paying for a sequel, but this is honestly the same game as before. The "three new characters!" are just reskins with no new mechanics or even different stats. You won't be out much money if you buy this, but it isn't really worth playing if you've played the flash version already.

  Very simple game. Kind of repetitive, but still fun to play. Crashes every now and then. Don't pay $5 for it.
