Colossal Cave is a point-and-click game that was released on January 19th, and many fans of this genre decided to give it a try. The game uses point-and-click mechanics very well, and there is also a mystery that players will unravel as they progress with the game. Since no one wants to lose their progress, saving it is necessary. So here is the guide on how to save in Colossal Cave.

How to Save in Colossal Cave

Since many modern games have a checkpoint and auto-save system, many players don’t care much about saving manually. But still, there are games where you will occasionally want to or have to save your progress manually.

For instance, in the case of most role-playing games, you want to have a manual save before completing a quest, because something might go wrong and you will face an ending you don’t want. Or you want to clear a cave or dungeon without using many items, so you decide to save your game before entering, which will give you the option to try this dungeon as much as you want until you see the result you want in the game.

Colossal Cave is happening inside a mysterious cave where you might face all sorts of things. Therefore it is safe to save your progress so you won’t lose it and also have an extra checkpoint that you can come back to.

There are two ways you can play Colossal Cave on PC. You can play it with a keyboard and mouse, or you can play the game only by using a mouse. If you are using a mouse and keyboard, then you have already discovered that there is a save button in the game menu that you can access by pressing Esc on the keyboard.

But if you are using only a mouse to play the game, you might wonder how to access the game menu. If you double left-click on the screen, the game menu will appear, and from that menu select Save Game to save your progression.

Colossal Cave is only available for PC right now.
