Our take on Cave Digger VR
Players who want a large, open-ended mining world may hit a wall once they have explored the town and its four underground levels. The other likely stopping point is the repeat-through structure: finding all nine endings means making different choices across runs.
What is Cave Digger VR?
Cave Digger VR is a virtual reality mining adventure set in a mysterious alternative western town.
Players explore the town and descend into the mountain, digging through bedrock and collecting valuables to trade for new gadgets. The mine includes four underground levels reached through an elevator shaft and train tracks. Tools and the train can be upgraded, and a companion chest carries collected loot.
