Juggling a Dozen Decisions At Once in Caverna

In Caverna, you take on the role of managing a dwarf family in their cavernous home, striving to develop and expand their underground world strategically. Starting with a humble cavern, you have a multitude of paths to explore. You might decide to clear forests to plant crops, establish pastures for raising animals, or delve deeper into the mountain to mine ore and gems. You could even forge weapons to send your dwarves on epic adventures.

Every turn in Caverna is crucial, as the game concludes after a fixed number of rounds. Your score is determined by how effectively you've managed to grow, develop, and optimize your subterranean kingdom. To get a feel for the game, take a look at the gameplay video below.
