A Dark Cave

Survive the darkness. Build your settlement.

You wake with no memory at the entrance of a cave. A small fire is all that stands between you and the dark. A Dark Cave is a text-based, story-driven survival, settlement-building, and incremental adventure where every decision matters. Inspired by the minimalist incremental classics, A Dark Cave trades flashy graphics for intense atmosphere, discovery, and meaningful choices. Build a thriving village, uncover ancient secrets, and descend ever deeper into a world that becomes more dangerous the stronger you grow.
