the Cave by Charming Alien 01/28/2013, 9:55am PST The Cave looks fantastic and has a good sense of humor, but the three-character mechanic gets really tedious. You have to manually bring them all onto the screen together for a lot of puzzles, and often the items you need are far away from each other so you spend a lot of time exploring with one character, leaving the other 2 behind to pick up and bring the items you need. The view auto-focuses one the character you select so you're navigating a half-screen at a time. I lasted about 90 minutes before I went off a played Warlock: Master of the Arcane for the rest of the weekend. There's stuff on your way through that looks like you could get at it if you had only remembered to bring extra dynamite from the last area, but there's no way I was starting over to deal with that navigation again.
