Caverna

DIGIDICED

About this game

Caverna by Uwe Rosenberg 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!

Ratings and reviews

I want to rate this game so much higher, but it's too buggy to give it anything more than 2 stars. Sometimes AI won't take its turn until the 24 hour period is up. Sometimes the game won't let you finish your turn so the game effectively just stops. The only reliable way to play is to go against JUST AI. Once you start adding your friends the game bugs out. 12/02 edit: AI refuses to take it's turn on round 6. Brand new game after supposed developer update.

A good adaptation of the board game. Plays well, few little niggles that are a bit annoying for example, when sowing grain or vegetables I have missed a few times that I had to click on the field where I wanted to sow. Could be a bit more visible. The 3D representation is nice, however animals are way too small, can barely see the sheep and pigs. They could be a bit bigger. Apart from a few interface hickups a fine game.

The UI is super unintuitive and hard to read, the symbology keeps from the board game, which doesn't really work if you don't have the physical pieces to play around. not a recommended experience on phones
