The Cavern

The Cavern is the second area of Universe 2. It is unlocked from an upgrade in The Construct called The Key. The upgrade costs 10,000 Rune Fragments and buying it will open a gate behind the Stability Device, granting access to The Cavern. Unlike The Jungle, here you cut mushrooms instead of grass. Mushrooms grow slowly and are permanently capped to 500. When a mushroom grows, it has a certain score value, which can be increased to make it more valuable. Mushrooms with a score higher than 100 will grant a currency called Spores, similar to Regrowth with Tier 3. Certain upgrades that affect The Jungle here will not get reset by any of the Cavern resets. The formula for mushroom value is currently unknown.

*Prior to version 0.9, The Cavern used the same soundtrack as the Anti Realm. Following this update, it received its own soundtrack.
