Sounds on restart
Intro music and game sounds turn back on at every game start. Have to switch them off each time. Is there a way to shut them off permanently?
Ooooo I love the story
Let’s all p,ease remember this is one guy who made these. Great little story and they all leaf into one another. Thanks for your hard work
3D Methods needs a lot more credit!
This is now the third game I have played from 3D Methods. As someone who plays a lot of point and click I unfortunately run into a good amount of repetitiveness, find a key, enter a code boom you’re out. Well not these games! They’re very fresh and challenging without feeling completely impossible without a hint. Well done!
Cryptic Caverns was one of my favorites from 3D Methods. I enjoyed the creativeness along with the adventurous feel to the game. It made you feel like tomb raider. I enjoyed interacting with island locals. That is something I’m not used to in an escape game. Lastly, I really like the length of the game. It is really nice to play a point and click that doesn’t just stay in one or two rooms! What a game!!

Worth the Purchase
Game is absorbing, and the puzzles make sense. Seldom did I need to resort to trying everything in my inventory. The map helps keep the player's bearings. Hints were not good: find something to do with an inventory item. As if we didn't know that! One puzzle, however, was needlessly complex with far too many steps to solve. Fun went right out the window as I played & paused the video walkthrough to get it done. Aside from that headache, I had fun and would try other games by this developer.

Fun with some great puzzles
Great puzzles point click fun
Challenging puzzles
Another clever game from 3D Methods. One of the puzzles near the end was very frustrating, but in-game hints made it solvable.
Excellent game!
Outstanding value at $0.99! Very creative story and puzzles. Love there are no hidden object time wasters! Puzzles are challenging, unique, remind me a little of Myst series (which will always be the benchmark for puzzle games IMO). Nice job developers. Thanks!!!
Loading is painful
Every time you move the game has to stop and take time to load to next scene. It's pain and by the time your on the next screen you forgot why you even went there. Forget it!! Takes mor time loading than actual game play. Game is only 1/2 hr long at best but loading adds 3 days. .
Puzzle lover!
I enjoyed this app! It never froze and I didn't see any glitches. The game was exactly what I wanted. I had to go back and forth using deductive reasoning to win. Not too easy! The hints are great in case you get stuck. Please keep making these games! I will be buying the next one!
Too easy, this should be free
The puzzles and such were good, but I finished this game easily in 30 minutes without any walkthroughs. It's a fun game, but I think it should be free. Too short!
Loved this game!!!
I, too, can't wait till their next one comes out! 3D Methods give their games beautiful grafix and their puzzles are not too hard; some seem hard at first but I found out that after finally getting thru a hard one, it wasn't hard at all! Just a perfect game in my book! Enjoyed Cryptic Keep too!
Cryptic cavern
Great game. Can't wait for the next one.
Myst-like
adventure game without the usual gimmicks such as hidden objects and mini-games. Unlike Myst it relies not so much on the laws of physics as on hints given in other locations, but once you get that, the obstacles become solvable. I stopped using hints about halfway through--either the game got easier, or I got used to its logic. And then I enjoyed it even more.

Confusing and boring
Even with the hints, this made little sense. Had to resort to just randomly clicking on things to solve half the puzzles.
great puzzles
really good puzzles probably better than those in grisly manor and lost city - they are challenging but make sense. overall really good game, could use a bit of polish but still a great value. please make a sequel
Puzzle made me use my brain!!!!!!
Very fun. You actually have to use your brain on this one. Don't give up and run to a walkthrough because you'll want to kick yourself when you see how obvious the answers are, especially if you've spent some time trying to figure it out. Just keep plugging away even if it takes a couple of days because you'll eventually get it.

Best game
Best of the best.
FANTASTIC!
If you liked Myst, but needed a walkthrough...Caverns is similar but not impossible. You'll love the puzzles and clever solutions! They are fabulous!
We need more Jacob! Puzzle lovers--this is a must!

Fun and challenging
I am currently stuck at the temple. This is definitely my kind of game. However I finally tried the hints for this temple door and they are not very helpful. Cryptic indeed. Worth the purchase!
Potential
This game has potential, but some problems. It would be great if the hint function was integrated into the game itself, rather than having to leave the game. I agree with the poster who said a walkthrough would be helpful. I got stuck and (1) since locations are not identified, I had to guess where I was; and (2) the hint itself was incomprehensible to me. This could be a great game.
