Quietly sitting at an 82 average. The algorithm never did this one any favors. Adventure in the classic sense: fantasy, science fiction, forward momentum, and places worth seeing. Play it solo first. The multiplayer will still be there when you're done.

About this game

Spelunky 2 builds upon the unique, randomized challenges that made the original a roguelike classic, offering a huge adventure designed to satisfy players old and new. Meet the next generation of explorers as they find themselves on the Moon, searching for treasure and missing family.

The story follows Ana Spelunky, the daughter of Guy Spelunky, the intrepid explorer at the heart of the original adventure. When her parents go missing, Ana sets out to find them, following their trail all the way to the Moon. There she descends into a labyrinth of deadly caves teeming with hostile creatures, cunning traps, and hidden treasures, drawing on inspiration from a host of ancient cultures and their mythological figures. Each expedition into the depths presents a fresh and perilous challenge, the winding passages shifting and rearranging with every attempt. Armed with courage and whatever tools she can scavenge along the way, Ana must brave these ever-changing subterranean worlds in a determined search for the family she refuses to give up on.
