LETS GO! ... OH NO! (or.. YIPEE!)

Caveman is a game where the goal is to guide Cavemen to the exit on the level.

:: GAME PLAY

Cavemen enter the level through an open hatch and walk aimlessly to their death or around in circles following the path outlined - specific skills can be assigned to Cavemen to create a new path and help guide the others to the designated exit.

The following skill sets are available:

- CLIMBER: scale those walls
- FLOATER: float down to safety
- EXPLODER: pop!
- BLOCKER: block the path
- BUILDER: build a bridge
- BASHER: bash a horizontal path
- MINER: mine a diagonal path
- DIGGER: dig a vertical path

Each level has a set of requirements to complete where a combination of skillsets may need to be used to solve the level - there is more than one solution available; how many cavemen can you save!

With four difficulty levels (easy, medium, obscure, insane) and 120 levels + hidden bonus levels - this game is guaranteed to bring you hours of enjoyment and gaming addiction!

:: OPTIONS

A number of game play options exist to customize the game play to individual preference; assignment of tools can be via clicking on the caveman, clicking on the toolbar or both. The game resumes play on touch by default but this can be disabled under the options screen.

:: SOLUTIONS

Mobile 1UP has worked very hard to ensure that all levels are solvable; a complete set of solution guides for every level are available on the Mobile 1UP website (high definition video and detailed walk throughts) - of course the challenge is being able to solve them on your own!

:: TIMEWARP

A special "unlock feature" has been provided where unlocked levels can be accessed via a special code; in addition to revealing special secrets of the game engine (easter eggs) - a complete list of the relevant unlock codes are available on the Mobile 1UP website. Some codes change on a daily basis - so be sure to visit often to find all the goodies that are available!

:: CREDITS

Caveman is a game inspired by the classic Lemmings developed by Psygnosis released for Amiga, DOS, et al in 1991. The project started as a port of the game, but due to intellectual property concerns the game was given a new set of graphics, audio and some custom levels to bring the game genre up to the standards expected by gamers in this era. The game was developed by Aaron Ardiri, the graphics provided by Tomas Miller, and the sounds were provided by Michael McGee.

Frustrating
Cupcake7686

This game is great but I would not have purchased the full version if I knew beforehand that the walkthrough section of the website currently offers nothing. I'm stuck! I'd love to be able to change my rating if I could get some support.


Level 29 then it's broken
LemmingsIsBetter

Don't buy this it doesn't go past level 29 of supposedly 100. Waste of $$$$. Disheartening. I was really enjoying it.


Lemmings!... Sorta
WV Jimp1989

Takes me back. Would be 5 stars if was iphone 5 compatible and could use some bug fixes.


Glitch at Level 29
rbecus

The game is excellent but there seem to be a glitch at level 29. what happens is that whenever I start the level it actually takes me at the beginning to to Level 1. when I complete this level I am promoted to 2 and so on. Please fix this!


The next best thing

This is the next best thing to that floppy disk that won't work on any of my computers! So miss playing lemmings but this is almost as good! Thanks for the app!!

Very frustrated! I have probably worked 40 to 50 levels. If you stop and return later it only shows that you have complexed 30 of 30. I am sick of completing level 30. I have only worked easy and a few medium levels. I can't get to the more difficult levels. You should expect 2 or 3 days of enjoyment then it is worthless, you won't play it anymore.


Was a great game until...

I got through all the medium levels and I loaded the game up to find myself back on the very first level. I went to exit out but the game timer is at zero, the crossbones won't work and no cavemen drop out. I have tried resetting the game through the phone "home" button and have turned the phone off and on and still it takes me back to the same broken first level. Please fix this so I can continue playing. Thanks


Can't play :(

I can't play because level 19 is glitchy. The cavemen don't get out of the cave and you can't win. Bummed I bought this app and then it didn't work.


Meh
lixx.

Underwhelming. The graphics leave a lot to be desired. I wish I had my money back.
