Juggling a Dozen Decisions At Once in Caverna
In Caverna, you take on the role of a dwarf family striving to expand their underground world. Starting with a modest cavern, you face a multitude of choices: clear forests to cultivate crops, build pastures for animals, or delve into the mountain to mine ore and gems. You can even craft weapons and send your dwarves on thrilling adventures. With a fixed number of rounds, every decision is crucial as the game concludes with a score based on your expansion, development, and management skills.
