The beloved board game Caverna: The Cave Farmers has now been transformed into a digital version, aptly named Caverna, which is available on Android, iOS, and Steam. Originally launched in 2013 and designed by the renowned Uwe Rosenberg, the mastermind behind Agricola, this digital adaptation promises to bring the same strategic depth to your screens.
On mobile platforms, the game is published by Digidiced, a German studio known for converting various board games into digital formats. Priced at $11.99, Caverna is currently accompanied by attractive discounts on other Digidiced titles such as Terra Mystica, Stockpile, Gaia Project, Chai, and Indian Summer, making it an excellent time to explore their catalog.
Juggling a Dozen Decisions At Once in Caverna
In Caverna, you take on the role of a dwarf family tasked with expanding their underground realm. Starting with a modest cavern, your journey can take you down numerous paths. You could choose to clear forests for agriculture, set up pastures for livestock, delve into the mountains for ore and gems, or even craft weapons to send your dwarves on adventures.
Every turn is crucial in Caverna, as the game concludes after a fixed number of rounds, and your score depends on how effectively you've expanded and managed your resources. To get a better sense of the gameplay, take a look at the video below.
Played the Original?
One of the standout features of the digital version of Caverna is its ability to manage the game's inherent complexity. You can engage in solo play against AI opponents with varied personalities or challenge up to six other players. The game supports both online and local multiplayer modes, and it also offers asynchronous play with push notifications, perfect for those with busy schedules.
For solo enthusiasts, weekly challenges and leaderboards add an extra layer of engagement. Additionally, the game includes a playback feature that allows you to revisit past matches. Visually, you can opt for the classic board game aesthetic or switch to a modern 3D look. Explore Caverna further on the Google Play Store.
