About This Game

"Cave Crawler: A Retro Exploration Adventure" is exactly as described! Explore a large, 2D open world with various islands, towns, and geographical features. Find tools along your journey, and use them to collect resources. Sell these resources at shops to earn money to buy items. Save up your money to upgrade and customize your house on Paradise island, an island city far off the coast of the mainland that is in disrepair. Navigate your way through caves, forests, factories, and much more to fight bosses and reach the end of your journey.

  • Pickaxe - Allows you to mine rocks, and can net you some ore and gems.
  • Axe - Lets you chop down trees, and to collect wood.

  • Fishing Rod - Fishes up fish, in addition to other items.
  • Sword - Use this tool to fend off various fiends.
