The Cave Diver

The Cave Diver combines rage-game challenges, psychological horror and folklore. You descend into a labyrinth of crushing stone and tight passageways using unconventional hand-based controls, searching for a rare flower said to grow at the bottom of the caves and cure any ailment, even paraplegia of the legs. Your family has told stories of the flower for generations, but everyone who has entered the caves has failed to return. Some say the cave takes them; others speak of an ancient evil stirring below.

Navigate the caves

You crawl through claustrophobic tunnels and unforgiving detours. Branching passages can lead you into tight spaces where turning back seems physically impossible. Use the movement and grip of your two hands to cross obstacles and solve physics puzzles, learning through failure.

Mark your descent

You hammer crude signs into the stone to track your way through the caves. With each new body, the cave becomes more familiar, and the marks left by those who came before remain. If you get stuck, you die alone, entombed in rock; no one comes to save you. Returning as a new cave diver may bring you to the decayed remains of your predecessor, if you can reach them.
