Digital ChumpsNathaniel StevensDec 20156.4/10Spelunker World relies a lot on gaming nostalgia to pull it through, while trying to mask the world of microtransactions. It works to an extent, but not completely. There is still too much simple, not enough modern and far too much room for frustration from failure. It's not a horrible game by any means, but it is limited in its capacity for fun in long stints.

We Got This CoveredJowi MeliNov 20153/5 starsSpelunker World has a few free-to-play irritations, stiff controls and iffy multiplayer, but a certain audience will find its old-school charm and addictive gear system enough reason to revisit the 22-year-old franchise.

DigitalCentralMediaJordan MichealNov 201512/100Spelunker World is an awful game. The controls are unresponsive, the graphics are terrible and the dungeons are horribly designed. It's a charming game but it's not recommended to anyone.
