About Spelunky Classic HD

Spelunky Classic HD is a roguelike platforming adventure where you explore dangerous, randomly generated caves in search of treasure. Jump across gaps, avoid traps, collect gold, use bombs and ropes, discover useful items, and travel deeper underground while trying to survive an unpredictable journey that changes every time you play.

  • Four main underground regions with different hazards
  • Numerous enemies, traps, and environmental challenges
  • Useful equipment including jetpacks, climbing gear, and weapons
  • Permanent-death gameplay where losing means starting a new run
  • Touch controls and improved gamepad support in the HD version
  • Play instantly in your browser with no download required
Game Modes
  • Adventure Run – Begin at the entrance and travel as deep into the caves as possible while collecting treasure and surviving each randomly generated level.
  • Treasure Hunting – Search every corner for gold, gems, idols, crates, and valuable hidden areas.
  • Secret Route – Collect special artifacts and uncover hidden locations that lead beyond the normal path.
  • High-Score Runs – Take greater risks, gather valuable treasure, and try to finish with a higher total score.
  • Speed Runs – Focus on movement and fast decision-making to reach later areas as quickly as possible.
Areas

Spelunky Classic HD contains four main areas that become progressively more difficult:

  • Cave – The starting area, filled with rocky tunnels, spiders, bats, snakes, traps, and hidden treasure.
  • Lush – A jungle-like region featuring vines, dangerous plants, water, and more aggressive enemies.
  • Ice – A slippery, open area filled with icy platforms, large drops, and unusual enemies.
  • Temple – The final main region, packed with tougher traps and enemies before the last encounter.

There are also secret locations such as the Black Market and City of Gold for players who discover the right items and routes.

Items & Equipment

Use the equipment you find throughout each run to survive and explore farther.

Items can include:

  • Bombs
  • Ropes
  • Compass
  • Parachute
  • Climbing Gloves
  • Spring Shoes
  • Spike Shoes
  • Mattock
  • Cape
  • Jetpack
  • Teleporter
  • Shotgun
  • Pistol
  • Machete
  • Special artifacts

Because items are not guaranteed every run, you need to adapt your strategy to whatever equipment you find.

Exploration & Strategy

Spelunky Classic HD rewards careful exploration and quick reactions. Every randomly generated cave creates new combinations of enemies, traps, treasure, and routes.

Useful skills include:

  • Checking areas before jumping
  • Conserving bombs and ropes
  • Searching for hidden treasure
  • Using objects to activate traps safely
  • Choosing whether valuable treasure is worth the risk
  • Buying useful equipment from shops
  • Finding alternate paths through levels
  • Learning how different enemies behave
  • Exploring secret areas
  • Adapting when a run does not go as planned

Death ends your current run, but every attempt helps you understand the caves better.

About Spelunky Classic HD

Spelunky Classic HD combines platforming, exploration, treasure hunting, and roguelike progression into an adventure where no two runs are exactly the same. Explore randomly generated caves, collect valuable loot, manage limited equipment, uncover hidden areas, and keep descending through increasingly dangerous regions. With quick restarts, secret routes, and unpredictable levels, every new expedition gives you another chance to reach the bottom of the caves.
