Deep Beneath the Earth's Surface--past the barrier of hardened bedrock--lies a world untouched by any player, full of mystery and danger. Untouched until today...
Surveyors of the Villager Mining Corporation had discovered a mysterious anomaly--an unstable fault in the world's bedrock leading to the deep recesses below. A team of miners was sent to investigate and explore what had never been seen before, but upon traveling through everything went wrong...
Surveyors of the Villager Mining Corporation had discovered a mysterious anomaly--an unstable fault in the world's bedrock leading to the deep recesses below. A team of miners was sent to investigate and explore what had never been seen before, but upon traveling through everything went wrong...
The ground suddenly began to shake with a violent earthquake, collapsing the mine and sending you, and your fellow workers hurtling into the depths below. When you awake, you find that the bedrock has been resealed, trapping you in a vast underground world. The mobs have grown strong here and they are not happy about being disturbed. Can you survive and live in the deep underground or will this be the end?
Your challenge is to live, play, and build constrained entirely to the underground world. Resources are limited and food is scarce. Your ultimate challenge is to escape what will otherwise eventually be your tomb. Can you make it back to the surface alive or will you die far from the light of day? Many challenges will lie in your path, and in the end the most insurmountable barrier of all: solid bedrock, blocks your journey back to the sunlight.
We have customized the underground to be twice as deep as normal and altered the world generation for a truly unique experience. But be warned! Secrets lie deep beneath the earth--undiscovered and dark--A malevolent presence that will stop at nothing to keep this world a secret forever...
Cave-In is an open survival world. You can travel as far as you wish and anything you can accomplish is yours: there are no rules. We've provided a list of challenges to guide your gameplay but you are free to play however you would like. You may--and probably will--die horribly a few times. Gradually you will learn to survive and make a home for yourself in this new world with its new rules. As you explore, you may stumble upon riddles, mysteries, and dangers. What you make of them and whether or not you escape is entirely up to you...

- 1-4 players, and play with friend if you can!
- You must play this map in version 1.8 or later. Maps opened by version 1.7 or earlier will experience a known bug where chest contents are deleted!
- Do not play on peaceful. This is a dangerous survival map and needs to stay that way! Also your game may remove some critical features!
- I do not recommend playing on hardcore. You can try it but I'm betting you won't make it through the list without dying once.
- Render: 4-8 chunks
- Command blocks: enabled, if playing on a server with friends
- Don't Cheat by using commands! You can change the gamerules if you wish or add a scoreboard, but don't use it to give yourself free items or change gamemodes.

Main changes:
- We’ve modded the map generation to generate an underground that is twice as large as normal
- ore/gem generation is also altered: Gems appear as isolated blocks rather than veins and ores are rarer but appear in larger vein sizes.
- Mob dungeon counts are very high
- These changes will continue to generate no matter how far you travel as they are embedded in the world generation.
- Bedrock generates trapping you below Y=128 and does so in all direction as far as you can travel, so don't waste your time looking for hidden holes.
- You start very near a mineshaft—these are your sole source of wood so ration it wisely.
- Various mysteries and surprises lie in the underground of this map ;)
- If you ever escape you will find a normal surface-world with all biomes generates in the normally unused space between 128-->256
- Ores may not generate where you'd expect. You'll need to explore to find them.
- Kill many zombies they are probably the most valuable mob on this map!
- Baby Zombies have a small chance to generate riding a chicken. These chickens will not lay eggs and will despawn if you walk away but you can name-tag them and breed once you get 2.
- Monsters sometimes bring items back to their nests
- Strongholds spawn about the original worldspawn not where you start it will be a trek to find one.
- Fishing can yield some surprising items
- Villagers will trade some rare goods and are the ONLY source of some valuable items. Cure some to improve your living standards!
- Mining around the bedrock seal may yield some interesting finds. You are not the only thing to have fallen through the bedrock from the surface over the years.
This is our first map, but we worked hard on this. Any and all feedback is very much appreciated! :) The youtube video is the first video in a Let's Play series done by _James96_ who does some awesome survival series. If you liked it you should definitely drop by his channel and leave a like! Follow the link the the minecraftforums if you want to view the survival journal where players are posting videos and screenshots of their discoveries and games! :)

I started a Let's Play series to... rough start so far though lol. This map is not for the faint of heart.

You definitely should've saved that carrot for planting it's a pretty rare drop.
Hmmm, I just finished your video and those chests are NOT supposed to be empty. Looking at the beginning of the map I see you did not get automatically teleported to the start either. I looked into it I think I know what may be going on. I'm now sure you opened this map in minecraft version 1.7 or earlier and experienced the inventory deletion bug. I'll message you details on this and my suggestions...which is, unfortunatley, you'll have to restart if you want to see all the useful items/lore on this map.
I definitely will restart so it'll fix the map and continue the let's play. Thank you so much for explaining that to me Danaphanous :D
A quick test to make sure the map is working is if when you log in this time you get automatically teleported to the starting area underground with the gravel. That's what was supposed to happen to make the experience more immersive. Ideally I wanted players never to see the overworld until they had beaten the game and escaped. Just adds to the feel ya' know. ;)
