Gone Caving!

Gone Caving is a card game in which you and your friends are exploring an underground world together. You can compete with each other, or choose to work together to discover the most passage possible. During your journey you’ll discover beautiful cave formations and curious animals. There will be challenges along the way, but you can overcome them and then find your way back to the surface.

Players first find a cave entrance, then explore cave passages, overcome challenges, and exit the cave safely to end. Score points by tallying the lengths of cave passage explored; get bonus points for specializing in one or more areas of cave research such as geology, biology, or cartography. Each of 104 cards is illustrated and based on accurate depictions of the formations, animals, and equipment that cavers encounter in the underground world. On each turn, a player draws a card and plays or discards a card. They may: play a card in their own play area to gain points or skills or to resolve a challenge;
or play a challenge in another player’s area; or discard a card with no effect.

A large portion of the proceeds from the game benefit the National Speleological Society (NSS).
