Just how many caves are there in Caves Of Qud?
“Is Caves Of Qudreally2,147,483,646 levels deep?”
I asked Brendy, like a wide-eyed child asking whether there is such a thing as dog heaven.
Brendy wasn’t sure.
(About Caves Of Qud, I mean, not dog heaven.)
So I put the question to one of the developers, Freehold Games co-founder Brian Bucklew.
In brief, the answer is yes, but with some significant caveats.
In fact, Caves Of Qud is bottomless.
Unearthing strange items is, of course, one of the principle incentives to keep digging.
“I’m not sure the deepest place players have been,” Bucklew went on.
Bucklew acknowledges that obsessive delvers will face a variety of technical hiccups.
The existing version is already one of ourbest roguelikes.
