Description Description
"Without teamwork, you will never survive. Without betrayal, you’ll never win."

Cutthroat Caverns is played over 9 rounds, each with a random encounter. Essentially a game of 'kill stealing'. Each round, any monster encountered will have a prestige value of 1 through 6. The player that successfully jockeys for position and lands the killing blow gets the prestige value for the encounter. Some encounters will not have a specific monster, such as a trap room for the heroes to pass through (and in this case, earning no prestige). The surviving player with the most prestige after the 9 encounters is the winner. If the players do not survive all 9 encounters, no one wins the game.

A unique combination of cooperative game play and opportunistic backstabbing.

There's nothing I've played that's like this game and it's really fun with the right group of people. It is a semi coop game where you need to work together to a certain extent, until you get closer to the end game where the knives really come out. It's great with four or more players.

I have been playing this game for almost 15 years, and it truly doesn't get old. It is the perfect blend of teamwork and betrayal. Every play is so unique, generating tons of memorable moments for me over the years. Thank you to the CC team for making this game

Played this tonight and I thought it was phenomenal. I thought it was like Munchkin which I have played once but I didn't really like it. Granted it was a very large game but, I like games that are...cutthroat. I like to be vindictive in a game. I don't like the, hey who wants to help me aspect of Munchkin. In Cutthroat caverns, any act of help, is truly for yourself. It was gnarly and awesome. I will buy this.

Such a great game. Not for players who whine about getting attacked by opponents or from having their stuff taken from them. The name of the game is to be taken literally. Most likely will be enjoyed by people who love Cosmic Encounters.

Would normally be a game I would have zero intrest in but the whole, he who kills gets all the glory makes it a brillant game of trying to figure out what to do on your turn depending on play order and the monster you are up against. Plays 3 surprisingly well but 4-6 is where it is at.
