Colossal Cave point and click adventure game launches on Linux, Mac, and Windows PC. This is also the result of the work from developer Cygnus Entertainment. Which is available now via Steam.


Colossal Cave is the key 3D version of the original text adventure. Along with Linux support, thanks to a developer comment on Steam earlier this month.

We have the Linux steam deck version going. I’m not sure if that same version will run on a normal linux computer.

The Unity based game also shows Linux support via SteamDB. Which is far better than the dev’s earlier statement about following wishlist support. Kudos to Cygnus Entertainment for making it happen.

Infinite wonders await in Colossal Cave. Well, at least for those seeking true adventure. Doing so in a winding maze of underground caves. Storybook beasts coming to life as living creatures, ready to be life long friends or foes. Complete complex puzzles while wondering through massive caves full of various dangers and unique treasures.
