Spelunky 2

  • Roguelike
  • Platformer
  • Hard

A roguelike platformer where every level is randomly generated and everything interacts with everything: traps, animals, angry shopkeepers and explosives. Dying is constant and almost always your own fault. It hides incredibly deep secrets.

Why play it now

When you have energy and want short, intense runs: a run can last two minutes or an hour.

Who it's for

For anyone who enjoys pure challenge, emergent chaos and learning through absurd deaths.

When not to pick it

If you want permanent progression or you're tired: here every run starts from scratch and it's tough.

What it offers

  • Thinking: 45 out of 100
