About the Game

Caverna is the digital adaptation of the board game of the same name created by Uwe Rosenberg. The game has the following game mechanics: Automatic Resource Growth, Tile Placement, Turn Order Claim Action, Worker Placement. The game has a Solomode and Multiplayer option. You can also play against the AI. It is a turnbased game that you can play live but also asynchronously. It can be played with 1-7 players. You have 2 options for the look of the game. The classic board game appearance and our 3D interpretation. 

Caverna makes you the head of a dwarf tribe, living in a small cavern.

You cultivate the forest in front of your cavern and dig deeper into the mountain throughout the game. By furnishing rooms in your caverns you make space to grow your tribe and and create new goods from your resources. Deeper into the mountain you will find fountains as well as ore and gem mines. It’s on you to decide how much ore and gems you want to mine, giving you the opportunity to forge weapons and go on adventures; a new way to do things in the game instead of using actions with your workers. Outside your cavern you can clear the forest, cultivate fields, fence pastures and grow crops or breed animals. All this in order to increase your wealth and become the strongest and best tribe leader of them all!
