What more needs to be said? The game was fun on Kongregate, and it suffered no losses in its port; the controls and performance are great. I cannot wait to see the excellent sequel ported to mobile devices, as well! ### 5/5 — Very addicitive *2015-02-10* Very addictive gameplay, looking forward to TEC2 coming to ios soon? :) ### 5/5 — Fun game *2015-02-06, version 1.29* Short but really fun!

I bought it anyway. I can't wait for the second one to be made into an app! Great game. Took me about a week to complete. ### 5/5 — Enchanted cave FTW! *2014-10-11* BEST GAME EVER I beat this game 1 times almost a second. And I can't wait for enchanted cave 2 to come out..... THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS GAME!!!!!! ps I highly recommend getting this game ### 5/5 — Fantastic! *2014-09-21* I continue to complete and restart this game from the beginning. Even after all of this time it holds my interest! Great job ### 5/5 — Amazing *2014-07-25* Played this before it was an app. Even better on the iPhone and addicting till the end. ### 5/5 — Damn *2014-07-19* This game amazin son ### 5/5 — Great game *2014-07-07* Used to play this on PC years ago. Love the grind, slowly getting stronger and reaching new floors. ### 5/5 — Simple and Fun Rougelike *2014-06-21, version 1.29* Very well polished game. One of my favorite rougelikes. Can't wait for The Enchanted Cave 2! ### 4/5 — Fun game *2014-06-02, version 1.29* Loved it on Kongregate; love it on my iPhone. Satisfies the treasure hunter in me. ### 5/5 — Love it *2014-05-31* Hey man i love your game here as well as on pc i also think your a great humble guy I've watched a couple of your interview and i think its really awesome how u got into prosessing im aswell also working on it m only 14 but I've created a rpg similar to yours but on a much smaller level i hope that one day i will be able to bs as skilled as you ceep on ceeping on you rock!! ### 5/5 — Great roguelike *2014-05-30, version 1.29* Great port of a kongregate favorite with interface and convenience improvements. ### 5/5 — So awesome *2014-04-23, version 1.29* I'm a supporter of enchanted cave and enchanted cave two. I'm really looking forward to any new dungeons or updates ### 5/5 — . *2014-04-20, version 1.29* .. ### 5/5 — Old skool fun retro game *2014-04-16* Simple and enjoyable little dungeon game. Looking forward to more games from the developer! ### 5/5 — Epic game! *2014-04-11* At first I was a little skeptic about this game, 2 hours of staring at my iPod later and I realized I love this game! The animations and graphics are both beautiful and funny. And being able to keep "artifacts" makes it easier to restart on higher floors, which keeps me playing. I'd give this game 10 stars if I could and have already recommended it to friends :) ### 5/5 — Amazing *2014-04-10, version 1.28* Love it! Definently one of my favorites! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Doesn't work on 8.3 *2015-05-08, version 1.29* When trying to go down stairs, the screen stays black and a footstep sound is repeated. This never stops. Game stays like this. Can't play. Hope the dev can fix.! ### 1/5 — Terrible game *2014-03-20, version 1.26* I do hope the kickstarter fails, we do not need more trash cluttering the App Store. Especially when great games like flappy bird are already gone! You did this, YOU DID THIS!!! ### 1/5 — Terrible, fix it *2014-03-13, version 1.26* I lose all my weapons when i restart and there is no way back to the store. The wings should bring u back to the store, not a complete restart. Also their should be stairs that go to the floor u came from. Fix this game!! ### 1/5 — This app would like to access your microphone *2014-02-25, version 1.25* What's up with that? Super creepy. ### 1/5 — Sound *2014-02-24, version 1.25* Can't listen to my own music 👎💩 ### 1/5 — Overrides your sound settings *2014-02-24, version 1.25* And asks to use your microphone before even explaining why. While I'm sure it'll have a great reason for ignoring your muted iphone and needing the microphone, it's a pass until it explains itself first. ### 3/5 — Fun but not working with update *2014-03-16* Game kept crashing on level 20 last night, hadn't before. Deleted app and re downloaded then got an update and keeps crashing. ### 3/5 — Fun but has some issues *2014-02-27* Fun game but has some issues that need addressing: - microphone access? In your dreams... - balance issues in later levels--vast majority of enemies are underpowered while certain few (vampire, baby dragon) are game-endingly overpowered. - can't actually cast any spells, though they're in the menu. ### 3/5 — ワンガリマータイ *2014-02-25* ビミョー ### 4/5 — Good game *2018-01-18* The Enchanted Cave is a good game but falls short to it’s more polished sequel that includes story elements, skill trees, and crafting. If you are looking for a game to pass the time or got tired of the sequel, The Enchanted Cave will offer hours of gameplay. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great game! *2025-07-07* Worth the 99 cents in my opinion. I remember playing this when it was just a flash game. Having to tap on each square to go to it is a little clunky, but the game itself is great. ### 5/5 — Simple, effective, brilliant *2022-10-07* I played this game MANY times on PC and was thrilled to find it in the AppStore. As dungeon crawlers go it’s one of the best in my opinion and well worth the price. Try it out first and if you like it then take a punt on the sequel, a similar but more in-depth game ### 5/5 — Fun for what it is *2020-07-03* A great and fun game, good for what it is and worth the price. Definitely buying the sequel ### 5/5 — Awesome Dungeon Crawler! *2020-04-23* This game is very well thought out and is very fun! I purchased this after playing The Enchanted Cave 2, which is is even better! KUDOS to the dev! The Enchanted Cave 3 PLEASE! ### 5/5 — Simple but addictive! *2018-04-01* The concept behind this game is very simple, but don't let that fool you. There's quite a bit of strategizing to be had, more so as you progress. I lost twice to the final challenge, but learned my lesson, came properly prepared and emerged victorious the third time. Don't forget you can inspect monsters without fighting, and change gear prior to combat to reduce lost HP. The artifacts are quite varied, and open up many more options. Best of all, it's quite satisfying to one-hit kill a monster that used to give you so much trouble before. Great game! ### 5/5 — Great game! *2016-08-19, version 1.29* Really like this, ### 5/5 — Awsome *2016-05-10, version 1.29* Its a great game 👍👍👍👍 ### 5/5 — One of my top favorite games! *2015-04-01, version 1.29* I love playing this game!!! Earned a permanent spot on my iPhone! This game is one of the best games in the App Store! ### 5/5 — Pretty Good *2015-03-27, version 1.29* 10 / 10 Like Skyrim with swords. ### 5/5 — Great game, elemental defenses OP *2015-02-23* I played this game and loved it, however there is one problem-the titanium gear, which should be the best, isn't actually very good because it doesn't have elemental resistances, which help so much more than normal defense, and which you can't raise without gear. Other than that it's a fantastic, if simple game, so 5 stars. I highly recommend it. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
