I only got a brief glimpse of The Cave at E3, but I’m already intrigued by the game’s 3D comic stylings, puzzling platforming and occasionally dark humor. (During the demo, one of the characters inadvertently leaves open a gate that contains a fire-breathing dragon, who in turn massacres an entire kingdom including the princess whose amulet players need to acquire. But all is well when the dragon spits out the bloodied amulet after his meal.) Players must alternate between several characters, each with unique abilities, as they attempt to find what they’re looking for underground.
