Cavern of Time is an RPG and adventure game centered on a young girl venturing into a perilous world. Her goal is to find a magical locket to cure her grandmother’s illness, as the journey brings her into contact with dangerous creatures, mystical skills and long-buried secrets. Written interludes and a storyline described as novel-quality give the adventure a narrative focus alongside its quests and challenges.
Combat and character progression draw on randomized loot: the game features over 120 items and more than 100 possible prefixes and suffixes, allowing for many combinations. Players can learn skills, take on side quests and face over 30 monster types, each with its own strengths and possible modifiers. Built-in achievements track accomplishments. Mouse and keyboard controls are supported, and the listed categories include partial controller support.
Its design brings together the heroine’s quest, written narrative, loot variety and monster encounters. High-quality maps, graphics and a lush music score help shape the setting, while side quests, skills and equipment add further strands to the journey beyond the search for the locket.
