Prepare to experiment and explore in Cavern, a unique roguelike sandbox experience. You'll join a motley crew of cavers tasked with documenting and filming the mysterious Mirror Cavern for an upcoming television special, funded by the Geo Cave Survey.
Overview
Cavern throws you into a world where every situation demands a creative solution, whether you choose to fight your way through or meddle with the environment. The core mechanic revolves around each character's ability to swap objects within the game at will. As you delve deeper, you'll unlock more swap abilities, allowing for increasingly complex and personalized playstyles. The deeper you go, the more chaotic the level generation becomes, yet paradoxically, you gain more control over the environment. This is your chance to "break" the game by placing objects in unexpected ways and discovering unique interactions.

Who It's For
