Chaos Caves

Chaos Caves is an all-action couch game where you blast each other with completely unreasonable weaponry. Games last about a minute, everyone gets a turn at the Nuke, and failure is just as funny as winning. Next time, grapple out of range!

About the Game

Drive, aim, shoot. Drill or grapple to escape. It's that simple.

The standard game is continuous rounds where everyone gets a random weapons (RPG, Laser, Grenade, C4, Bouncer, or Nuke) and 3 utility tools (grapple, thruster and drill), played on one of the 5 biomes, each with unique elements (eg. the Ice Cave is slippery, so you'll need your boost rocket to get up steeper slopes).

Each round only last about a minute and once any player is dead it's sudden death for everyone else, so all players can have non-stop fun.

Gamepad controllers are fully supported and one player can play from a keyboard, for up to 5 players.

In single-player mode you need to destroy towers, some of which are shielded (touch the shield controller with your vehicle to disable it) - you can practice both weapons and acrobatics.

Not sure? Try the free version (the "Download Demo" button on this page), which is the same as the full game except only the class RPG weapon is available (it's the most balanced weapon in the game).
