Cave Crave

Step into the underground world of caves in the most realistic VR spelunking game, where the entire environment is your map, just waiting to be discovered! Do you love watching footage of secret space exploration? Curious about spelunking? Want to laugh at your claustrophobia? Or maybe just want to fashion your own path up a dark wall using hooks? In any case, 'Cave Crave' is the game for you.

  • Immersive, realistic environments: Explore irregular, unpredictable spaces with hundreds of strange kinks and unusual terrain situations. Forget "cave03.png" textures in usual, square tunnels – we're doing the real thing.
  • No map: Need some navigation hints? Make them yourself. Using chalk, you can leave your own navigational clues on cave walls.
  • Destructible obstacles: Encounter roadblocks? Break smaller stalactites with a hammer and clear larger boulders by scraping cracks in them and blasting through them with proper tools.
  • Full environment interaction: The whole world in front of you is touchable and you can try to climb it – with your hands alone or with tools.
  • Breath management: Use a breath control mechanic to manage your chest size and slip through super tight places – or avoid drowning!
  • Different biomes, different challenges: Mud lakes, sulphurous volcanic fumes, and deadly frost are just some of the obstacles you'll face as you journey deeper underground.
  • Simplified simulation: Maintain your gear to ensure its reliability. Without it, you could find yourself in a no-win situation.
  • Customize your experience: The default setting provides a mysterious and immersive cave atmosphere without cheap horror tricks. However, you can turn on scarier features (like cave spiders) to adjust your experience.
