Caverna: The Cave Farmers Goes Digital
The beloved board game Caverna: The Cave Farmers has received a digital makeover. This official adaptation recently launched on Android, iOS, and Steam platforms. Originally created in 2013 by Uwe Rosenberg (designer of Agricola), the game maintains its core strategic gameplay while transitioning to digital formats.
The mobile version, published by German studio Digidiced, is currently available for $11.99. Known for their board game adaptations, Digidiced's portfolio includes digital versions of Terra Mystica, Stockpile, Gaia Project, Chai, and Indian Summer - many currently offered at discounted prices.
Mastering Strategic Depth in Caverna
Players take on the role of dwarf cave farmers, strategically expanding their underground homesteads. Beginning with a simple cavern, players can pursue multiple development paths:
- Clear forests to establish farmland
- Build pastures for livestock breeding
- Mine mountains for precious minerals
- Forge weapons for dwarf expeditions
The game's predefined number of rounds creates tense strategic decisions, with final scores reflecting your expansion efficiency, development choices, and resource management.
