Colossal Cave - Nintendo Switch - Cygnus Entertainment, Limited Run Games
Venture deep underground in Roberta Williams’ faithful 3D reimagining of the original Colossal Cave on Nintendo Switch.
Acclaimed designer Roberta Williams revives the classic text adventure as a retro, point-and-click cave exploration puzzler. Based on the original 1970s design by Will Crowther and Don Woods, this update maintains its vintage charm while revitalizing the experience for modern players.
Embark on a timeless journey through a sprawling cave system packed with treasures, creatures, mazes, and wits-defying puzzles. Through trial and error you’ll crawl through tight squeezes, discover impressive caverns, collect inventory, locate treasure, thwart dwarf attacks, and keep an eye on your score before your lamp goes out. Explore 14 distinct regions filled with magic, hidden secrets, breathtaking views, and cave-dwelling creatures of all types.
This is a faithful, unchanged tribute to the original game design—dust off your vintage Colossal Cave maps from the 70s or 80s; they’ll still work like a charm. Enjoy simple, intuitive point-and-click controls, colorful and immersive regions, logic-driven challenges, and scenic subterranean vistas teeming with secrets. Presented on a region-free physical cartridge for Nintendo Switch.
