### 1/5 — Not worth it

*2026-07-19, version 1.0.0*

Should have remained free. I loved this game when years ago but now you need to pay to move forward which is disappointing

### 5/5 — Love

*2026-03-01, version 1.0.0*

This is one of my go to games.

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2024-12-13, version 1.0.0*

Wonderful game to pass time, and entertain at the same time. No ads trying to get you to buy things there’s a storyline to follow. And there’s hints along the way early if you need them

### 4/5 — Good for mind clearing!

*2024-12-07, version 1.0.0*

Love this addictive little game, pictures are a bit babyish but the game makes up for it,
Thank you.

### 2/5 — Cave Quest 3

*2024-11-04, version 1.0.0*

Cave Quest 2 viel besser, 3 langweilig und kurz und immer das gleiche ohne jegliche Spannung oder Spaß

### 5/5 — Love this game

*2024-08-25, version 1.0.0*

This is one of my “go to” games when I want to sit down and relax with a good game. Must have played this a 100 times.  Kept wishing they’d come out with a follow-up game.  To find out, one was already out, “CAVE QUEST 2”.  I love the follow-up even more (harder game and longer playing time and better story).  I see they were trying to come out with Cave Quest 3 which looked like it would be awesome.  I’m 75 years old and highly recommend these games.

### 3/5 — Cave Quest

*2024-05-26, version 1.0.0*

I hate vines regrowing after I cleared them.  I don’t enjoy having to play fast.
I hate “opponent” getting more turns than me.

### 5/5 — Love this game

*2024-03-23, version 1.0.0*

Downloading the next game. Can’t wait to play 😀

### 5/5 — Warten auf weitere Folgen!!

*2024-02-02, version 1.0.0*

Wo bleiben weitere Folgen. Spiel und Konzept ist richtig gut!!

### 5/5 — Cave Quest. Match 3

*2023-12-17, version 1.0.0*

Bonjour, je voudrais débloquer ce jeu règlement mobile et donc impossible. Merci pour votre aide . Bonne journée.
