Overview

About this game

Experiment, Explore, and Swap in Cavern, a roguelike sandbox.

Join a rag tag group of cavers on a mission to data log and film Mirror Cavern for a new Television Special!

(funded by yours truly... the Geo Cave Survey.) 

Cavern - a Roguelike Sandbox

Every situation presents a unique challenge and a unique solution whether you decide to fight or meddle. Each character has the ability to swap out objects in the game at will, and gains more swaps along the way to pair with their playstyle. As you go deeper into the Cavern, the level generation becomes more chaotic, and you will gain more control...

Break the game by putting objects where they were never intended to be!

Find unique interactions in an immersive world...

Swap a rock into a bomb to clear terrain,

Swap a harmless pot into a slime to fight on your side,

Swap a skeleton's sword into a useless stick,

Swap cobwebs into shiny gems to distract an enemy...

And push the limits of the game with crazy combinations and absurd strategies...

Strap a rocket to your back to run super fast,

Spawn tons of stalactites to one shot enemies,

Swap stun grenades to stun-lock foes,

Swap enemy projectiles into infinite health potions,

Stack equip-able weapons to get absurd range...
