32 of 32 · most liked firstUPD: this review is a bit outdated now. Looks like devs did minor (and silent) update to fix most annoying problems. At this point I have no interest in full testing, so I just strike down few lines. Game is Ok, it's common 'run-'till-you-can' time killer, probably it was made for Android tablets and just ported on PC. Actual problem is the fact that PC port was made awfully. Biggest flaws so far: • only one locked screen resolution (1280×720); • no full-screen, game windowed even if your…

You can pickup max 3 earthworms in your cart (like extra lives). If you hit an obstacle you lose one. The aim is to come as far as you can. You can extend your record with collecting crystals (worth 500 gemstones) and pay some continues with them. Also a huge range of in-game achievements. Mostly you reach the Steam achievements before you unlocked every in-game tasks. And only…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Summary: Cave Coaster is an endless platformer, where your main target is getting as far as possible, collecting crystals for unlockable items meanwhile. It features typical smartphone game quest system - you will always get three small tasks to do and those will try to get you addicted to the game, making you getting better score meanwhile. It's not a bad game but there's nothing worth mentioning besides its mediocrity. It's just an another typical endless smartphone one-button platformer…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I kind of liked this game, but I thought it was going to be like those awesome SNES Donkey Kong Country cart levels and this game is not like that. The really BAD part is that the jump is always the same, it doesn't matter if you press jump hard or soft, the cart always jumps at the same height. If that could be changed this game would be way better. I do recommend it, just because it's cheap and I don't think it deserved not to be recommended.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Cave Coaster is blatantly a phone game ported to PC. The simple control scheme and concept make it obvious. Phone games can still be fun, though, even if they have to be designed around hardware limitations that the PC doesn't have. Cave Coaster, however, is not much fun at all. Not even by phone game standards. The gameplay gets tiresome after your third or fourth run, and controls seem glitchy and unresponsive. Even if you were playing on a phone, Cave Coaster would be a mediocre choice…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I got this game on sale. My review is partially based on the price I paid. I recommend buying this game when it's on sale. I've played a few different coaster games, and the dash through the level as far as you can go types in general and I have to say this one isn't too bad. Even for something that's been ported from a mobile game. I've heard some people say it's hard to control...I haven't had any issues with that and I'm using a cheapo 20 dollar Dell USB keyboard...so I assume that's user…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Seems like a endless runner. Three powers to use - magnet, rocket jump and shield. Collect as many gems while double jumping with coaster filled with bizarre worms like creatures. Pick new passengers to increase hit points. Not the best tbh.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Cave Coaster is yet another of several hundred, if not thousands of garbage low effort endless runners plaguing Steam. And yes, it's not a PC game, it's a crap mobile app that's been dumped here as a cash grab. Like all endless/autorunners, you're moving and you can't stop. All you can do is avoid the obstacles coming at you in this incredibly shallow shovelware mobile app. From a technical perspective, as a mobile app, this doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Cave Coaster has you moving on a mine cart collecting gems and dodging obstacles. You can slow down or speed up the coaster, but you can't stop it from moving. Rails end abruptly requiring you to drop off or jump off to the next available rail. However, on the rails will be bombs, wood blocks, or more that can hurt you or kill you. You can collect miners which adds lives to your cart. Hitting obstacles will take away a miner, but falling off the map or hitting a bomb will kill all three…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Here we are again, scraping the bottom of the steam barrel. On the other hand, there doesn't seem to be any major gamebreaking bugs. Still, don't waste your money on this.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is a reasonably enjoyable casual game. There isn't much to it, and gets repetitive fast. The main reason I can't recommend it, is because it's very buggy. Sometimes you'll fall through the tracks or a rope randomly, causing you to drop to your death. On occassion, the next sector doesn't load and you just disappear into the void. The hitboxes for the barriers are way too big; you could jump high over a barrel but still get hit. There aren't any exciting power ups, and skill doesn't…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →You loved the Donkey Kong Country mine cart levels and wanted more. Unfortunately, the physics are busted in this inspired creation. You'll clip through tracks, vines, anything that can help you while the obstacles work perfectly fine at hurting you. The achievements aren't too hard to 100%, but know you'll probably rage quit before you get the 1500 gems in one run...which is semi-broken and doesn't consistently activate.

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Mobile-style gameplay. Glitchy & non-responsive controls. I really tried to find some real gameplay in this game. No luck. There are many better games on mobiles, why would you play it on PC?
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It’s time to relaunch Indie Game of the Week with a boom, of dynamite that is! Cave Coaster is an addictive new Indie Game which sees yourself as a gem hungry miner who loves to ride the rails with his miner buddies and risk it all to claim as many jewels as possible before they fall from the tracks. We’ve been taking our cart for a ride and here are our thoughts on the game. Gameplay Well paced action keeps you playing at a speed that’s balanced enough for you to decide your next move but…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →An endless runner that doesn't really have much going for it. There are only 3 powerups, and you can change your cart, but with the controls not being great and the price they want for it, there are definitely better games. May be ok in very small bursts, but then you'll end up just idling the game to collect the huge number of cards.

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Cost me less than £1.00 & I still feel ripped off.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The only good part of this game is that you can reach the 100% (perfect game) very easy.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Unfortunately the game is quite boring. There is this mine cart going in one direction and you can just jump above holes or obstacles thrown away in your way, and collect gems in the meantime. You cannot collect all the gems you can see on the screen (which is pretty disappointing), as they are put on different platforms, and you can just select one of the available ways. The jumping is also boring as you there is a lot of automatic jumping ramps at the end of most platforms and you can also…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The biggest question here is if the miners are worms or the other reproductive thing.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Tags: Casual - Runner Additional Tags: Delete Local Content & Remove from Library TLDR: Tabletported quality. Endless runner. Double jump and Xbox360 pad supported. Bland level design. Recycled assets. Grating sound. Gaining health hearts is useless since you instadeath in pits all the time.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Good runner game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →https://youtu.be/FRPyEkCg8dY Ignoring obvious safe codes for mine and cave construction a subterranean coaster isn't the worst idea in the world. This infinite ?roller? has the player racing down the tracks collecting gems while avoiding obstacles while completing mini-quests to unlock upgrades and customizations. The infinite runner foundations are well achieved but the developers didn't add any additional touches to make their game stand out as special. This results in the game blending…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a pretty quick game, which does not offer much more than a few minutes of acual game play. You are in a minecart and have as many lives as there are worms in your cart (max. 3). Every time you crash, you lose a life. Lose all lives and it's game over. Even a "good round" rarely takes more than a few minutes, most others a few seconds. Not funny enough to play drunk in a group. If you can get it for a few cents, it might be worth a try, but it's definitely not worth a dollar...
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →THis belongs on mobile :/
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not a bad game. I had to reset it about 4 times before I could get the jump button to work but it finally did. I enjoyed the game, and it was something you could really sink some time into.
