Channel: LIFE RPG
Date: 2016-01-29

Cally's Caves 3 is an action-platformer where using your weapons will power them up significantly. While Cally's Cave 3 didn't offer a ton of new ideas, it does a fine job with an established formula.

Cally looks like Penny from Inspector Gadget, and I suspect it is her... Once she changed her name after the 2nd divorce. I'm not here to judge Cally. I'm simply here to judge her game. So watch!

His style retrogame and a dynamic and fun gameplay, excellent soundtrack!

Cally’s Caves 3 is an action platformer with a Ratchet & Clank-style weapon upgrade system, and a karate master bear cub sidekick.
tl;dr It's a lot of fun with only superficial gripes. It focuses on gameplay far more than story as well.

The good:
This game oozes with style and takes good game design from some of my favourite Ratchet & Clank games.
The music is bumping with energy
The characters are cute and look good
It's has an interesting combination of level design and the combat system thats lend to natural advantages and disadvantages for the player or enemies. EG: The heights of platforms, sizes of enemies, positioning of everything.
Any early complaints I had with the game were quickly solved as you gain EXP, level up your weapons and generally get better at the game. 
Learning the mechanics as you go makes a huge difference and the game doesn't baby you with tutorials.
That said it does a good job of encouraging you to learn the mechanics naturally through level design than obtuse or forced tutorials.
There are a ton of weapons and abilities.
Weapons can be upgraded a LOT through using them and they become really, really cool. Very R&C.
There are also weapon modifications although costly so will take some time to get.
The game does give hints towards mechanics that you have previously had chances to figure out, in case you didn't by yourself it will tell you not too much later. EG: Parry mechanics. 
Options menus are good enough without complaint. 
Lots of control options and remap the keybindings even for your controller if you use one.

The cons:
Music feels a little repeative at times but you can
Damage on touch with enemies can be annoying at times
Many weapons have a random spread instead of fixed-spread, may not be a con but it can make choosing a reliable weapon favourable at times.
Why does the lamp only work once? It wasn't listed as a consumable implying it was something you could always pick up. Although understable because it would negate the checkpoint system. -Shrike

It’s somewhat shocking that the first two Cally’s Caves games never made it onto Steam – they’re only available from the iTunes Appstore and were made for mobile play only. Consequently many PC gamers may never have heard of this outstanding franchise by ZDO Games. To bring you up to speed the Cally’s Caves franchise has always represented outstanding platform gameplay with heavy does of elements from adventure and RPG games.

The Cally’s Caves games have always utilized intelligent retro style platformer graphics. The characters – both Cally and the other NPCs both enemies and otherwise – are all very well designed. Although the music is energizing and suits the game it becomes a bit too repetitive. The game could have been improved by having a larger soundtrack. -Steamified
