Cave Heroes: Idle Dungeon Crawl is a SIMPLE Idle game, but REALLY FUN!

Cave Heroes is an incremental EPIC DUNGEON CRAWLER RPG Idle game and honestly at first... I wasn't enjoying my experience, but the more I played... I found I COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN!

At first while playing this game, I was thinking to myself, Okay, so this game is basically just waiting for the materials to build up and then spend them in order to strengthen my dungeon crawlers. And yeah, for the most part, that is exactly what this game is. You will build Granaries, Storage buildings, Forges, as well as buildings to help strengthen your party in the dungeon, and then assign them workers or soldiers to give extra stats as well. And most of the time you will be waiting, and waiting. Since this is an idle game, that's not that surprising.  And I actually got stuck at cave level 10 on my first dungeon crawl. Until I realised I totally forgot about upgrading the weapons and armor. Once I did that I was able to push through quite a bit. And that's when the twist arrived. Eventually you will do a Dark Ritual and you can use the dark mana you have found from within the dungeon crawl, and from what I can tell, you sacrifice everyone and start again from the beginning, but this time with extra base stats that you applied from the dark ritual! On your second round though, you can actually do a holy ritual which will apply all your new stats but instead of starting from the beginning, you can continue your dungeon crawl with the new stats. First time seems free, but the 2nd Holy Ritual costs gems.

I've been leaving this game idle in the background while I do other things, and coming back to grow the various buildings to allow for more resources, or to improve my stats and it's funny because at first I really thought I wasn't that interested in this game, but even as I write this, I still have it on in the background gathering resources. I just unlocked the Magic School and can create arch mages to help Julia the healer in the party dungeon crawl. I also unlocked the foundry, which lets me mine gold, so I no longer have to rely on getting gold from the dungeon crawl itself. So what originally seemed like a dull experience for me, turned into one that I couldn't help but keep looking at and enjoy seeing my team get stronger and stronger.  And I just can't seem to put it down... For now.

Visually the game doesn't have any overly complicated graphics, it's basically very basic pixel graphics and not much to see, you just have your town that you slowly build, and then the dungeon crawl window which will show your party auto traveling the map finding treasure and attacking monsters along the way.

Overall I'd say that Cave Heroes Idle Dungeon Crawl is a not bad after all, I was able to turn my original impression of the game around, and find the fun in it after all. While this will not be a non stop grind in a day kind of a game, it will definitely be a nice game to check up on from time to time, and leave it idle in the corner while you gather resources. And as you progress further, you will find the rewards in game to be quite nice. It's definitely worth sticking around after the first dark ritual which is part of a tutorial. That's when things get a lot more interesting I find. If you think this game could be for you, you should definitely download it now and try it for yourself.
