About The Dark Cave
The Dark Cave is a pixel art, turn-based roguelike where you fight waves of enemies across opposing 3x3 grids. Movement during battles is limited, so you need to plan each move and anticipate where monsters will go and how they will attack.
Heroes and combat
Choose from three distinct heroes, each with more than 20 skills that can be upgraded multiple times. Combine skills and movement to attack and defend as you adapt your strategy to each monster’s movement and attack patterns.
Items and rewards
You can shape your combat style with combinations of more than 20 enhancement effects, more than 20 potions and more than 40 relics. After each layer, the Blacksmith, the Angel and the Black Marketeer offer different items to help you continue, sometimes in exchange for a sacrifice.
