Paleo: The Caves

About this expansion

Paleo: The Caves is a board game experience for 1–4 players, with play lasting about 60 minutes. Released in 2024, it places players in a desperate search for shelter after a severe earthquake devastates their home.

The nearby caves offer refuge, but safety is far from certain. Inside, the group must contend with darkness, wrong paths, and strange noises that make every step into the caves more challenging.

The caves do more than provide a new setting. They force players to rethink their approaches to solving the other modules, asking them to adapt how they handle the challenges before them.

• A severe earthquake has devastated the players’ home.
• The nearby caves provide a place to seek shelter.
• Darkness, wrong paths, and strange noises create additional challenges.
• The caves increase the overall level of difficulty a little.

Rather than simply repeating familiar solutions, Paleo: The Caves changes the way the other modules must be approached. Its challenges encourage fresh thinking as players navigate an environment defined by uncertainty and unsettling sounds.

With its tense cave setting and increased difficulty, this module adds a distinctive twist to the Paleo experience. Whether played with one player or a group of up to four, it presents a focused challenge built around adapting to the dangers hidden in the darkness.
