Cavern is a dungeon crawler in the vein of genre classics like Rogue and Nethack - but with original game world not based on any existing roguelike. Each level is randomly generated so no two games are the same. ---- Cavern was full of ancient treasure which surface people dug up to keep their high standards of living. Caves were inhabited by hostile creatures of the nether but Mystery Object of the surface kept the evil weak with it's power. Somehow, creatures of the deep managed to steal the Mystery Object and took it to the deepest levels of the Cavern. Now You, the Hero, must retrieve it before it's powers are used against the Surface! Features: •Shops to buy equipment and sell treasure •Three characters to play: Fighter : strong melee character. Adventurer : specialises in bows. Mystic : uses wands and scrolls. •Vintage game art by DeBray Bailey •16 randomly generated dungeons •In-game tutorial •Over 40 different monsters •Randomized item attributes and special unique items. •Online Highscores and ranking for each game played. •Saves your exact game state when receiving call or switching to another app. •Juicy sound effects. •Permadeath

I used to dislike turn based games

Then I played Cavern. I didn't understand it the first couple times I played but once you start learning and understanding all the little quirks and tricks in the game it's really fun. The maps are all procedurally generated so every time you play you'll have to do some exploring. I hope this game comes out with a content update that adds secret floors, more things to explore similar to the water fountains and bookshelves, or more character designs. I like the fact that the ghosts in the cavern are named after other player's characters that died. It's kinda like dark souls how you can summon a ghost to fight with you except instead of a real player it's a dumb cpu. They're useful anyway.

No d pad is my only complaint.

I hate tap to move but at least there is an action button. I love this game I just wish at the very least your character didn’t have to finish moving before you can tap again. Also I wish they had an endless mode because once you beat the game it’s not as fun to replay unless there are more challenges or something. Still 5 stars.

Warning you can not save your game!

Tread lightly my friend. Although not listed as a rogue game, you will die and will need to start all over with a new character. It may take several hits by an enemy and there is a warning to use a healing g potion or eat before getting destroyed, but the warning comes to late. I played with a wizard class - if an enemy gets too close they can wipe you out. Next was a warrior class- I got down to about level 6- could not avoid a gang of enemies and one shot from an enemy took me out. There is no save option. The game is without mercy. No starting with the same character or where you left off, just your character is placed In the hall of fame. A reminder of your wasted efforts!Will not play again.Save your frustration and your $2.00

1.) I cannot zoom in and out :( I do not have the best vision and sometimes it’s a little difficult to see my own character. 2.) I am not sure what level i am on. I do not know if i am missing something or not but it would be cool if you can add a level count in the corner or something.3.) game crashes after death. Otherwise, A hidden gem in the store. This game is easy to get a hang of, easy to get lost in, and awesome pixel graphics! Keep up the amazing work :)
