How it plays
How does Cadash play?
The game uses a side-scrolling perspective. Players travel through connected fantasy areas, defeat enemies, collect gold and experience, and search for keys, shops, treasures, and passages needed to continue.
Each hero has different attack properties and magical abilities. Experience raises combat capability, while gold can be spent on weapons, armor, and useful items. Stages contain bosses and hazards, and cooperative arcade play allows multiple heroes to advance together.
Plan your run
What is the best way to play Cadash?
Choose a character that matches the intended play style: durable melee fighters are forgiving, while magic-oriented heroes can control groups and attack from safer positions.
- Explore side paths for gold, equipment, and restorative items.
- Save magic for bosses or dense enemy groups rather than ordinary encounters.
- Learn enemy attack patterns and avoid trading hits, since health and resources are limited.
- Revisit shops when possible and prioritize upgrades that improve survivability.
