Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players who want combat encounters without enemy-specific tactics may hit a wall when different foes require different approaches.
- Players who prefer uninterrupted exploration may stall when doors and mechanisms require puzzle solving to open new areas.
- Players seeking a cooperative multiplayer game may not find that structure here.
Our take on Caveman Stories
The likely sticking point is the progression gate: reaching new areas requires solving puzzles such as opening doors and disabling mechanisms, while enemies remain in the mix. Players who want to move through exploration without stopping for these tasks may hit a wall at those locked routes.
What is Caveman Stories?
Caveman Stories is an adventure about a lost caveman trying to survive an unfamiliar ice age and find a way home.
Explore large wilderness areas, uncover ancient structures and symbols, and investigate what is causing the cold. Gather materials such as wood to build shelters for freezing nights, or look for caves to take cover. Combat involves different enemy types that call for different approaches, using force or other tactics. Puzzles include opening doors and disabling mechanisms to reach new areas.
