Compare Crystal Caves prices across trusted key stores and find the best deal. Developed by Apogee Software. Published by Apogee Entertainment. Released on 5/5/2014. Available on PC, Mac. Genres: Action.

A retro arcade platformer that proves 8-bit charm never goes out of style if the level design is tight enough.

I went in expecting nostalgia bait and found something more useful: a genuinely well-crafted arcade platformer that respects your time. You're Mylo Steamwitz spelunking through caves stuffed with treasure and traps, jumping, collecting, and solving simple environmental puzzles across dozens of levels. The EGA graphics are clean and readable, the controls feel responsive, and the difficulty curve never punishes you unfairly - it just keeps escalating the obstacle variety in ways that feel earned. Crystal Caves works because it doesn't pretend to be anything it isn't. It's a bite-sized arcade game with solid platforming fundamentals and the kind of level design that makes you want to beat the next cave just to see what stupid trap waits for you. No bloat, no pretense. That's the whole pitch, and it delivers. Alex, Scout Team

Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.

Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.

We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.
