CaveCrawler: Deep Dark

Your little explorer fights on their own. You make the calls.

CaveCrawler is an auto-battle roguelite. Raise your lantern, step into the cave and dive room by room through tunnels that are different every run, full of rats, bats, snakes and worse. Runs are short, every choice counts, and every fall makes the next explorer stronger.

AUTO-BATTLE, REAL DECISIONS
• Combat plays itself, and the cave freezes for every reward so you never miss a choice
• Equip or discard loot: 6 weapons, 4 coats and 4 charms, from Common to Legendary
• Every item has a level, and rarer finds add bonuses: crits, splash, double strikes, ricochets, lifesteal, dodge and thorns
• Level up and spend points on Might, Haste and Grit

BUILD A SPELL-SLINGING HERO
• 17 abilities, each upgradable to rank 5, and every card shows what a spell does
• Find a Fusion Shrine and merge two abilities into one of 9 hybrids: Ice Spike + Thunder = Frostchain, Ember Arc + Thunder = Stormfire
• Unlock up to 5 ability slots

A CAVE THAT FIGHTS BACK
• 6 zones, from the Mossy Burrows to the Deep Dark
• 8 kinds of creatures and a gatekeeper at the end of every zone
• Tap pots and mushrooms for hidden treasure, and clear the rubble from side passages for healing springs and treasure rooms

EVERY RUN COUNTS
• Earn Embers and spend them on permanent upgrades at camp, from more health to lifesteal and critical hits
• Light waystones to start deeper next time
• Complete bounties to unlock explorer kits, and pick a lantern color
• A Codex records every creature, item and ability you find
• A new daily expedition every day, the same cave for everyone

FAIR AND OFFLINE
• Play anywhere, no connection needed
• Free to depth 25: no ads, no energy, no timers
• One Full Cave purchase opens the endless Deep Dark beyond depth 25

A dive takes 5 to 10 minutes, and your run is saved whenever you leave.
