About A Dark Cave
A Dark Cave is a text-based, story-driven survival and settlement-building adventure with incremental progression. You wake at a cave entrance with no memory and only a small fire to keep the darkness at bay. Build a village, uncover ancient secrets and descend into a world that grows more dangerous as you grow stronger.
Build your settlement
Construct and upgrade buildings, assign villagers to specialized jobs and expand your village so it can endure. Manage production chains that turn time and raw materials into tools, weapons and powerful items, balancing trade-offs when resources are scarce.
Explore the cave
Dig for minerals and push into the unknown to find resources, rewards and secrets. Explore the cave to uncover the remains of a lost civilization, and venture into the lost land as you unlock new locations, mechanics and characters. There, you can scout, trade, research, upgrade and sacrifice.
Defend your village
Fight off waves of creatures from deep within the cave as they try to destroy what you have built. You can also unlock game mechanics and lore incrementally, with over 70 achievements to earn.
