Hopeless: The Dark Cave for Android

Looking for a quick game that tests your reflexes? Here is the Hopeless: The Dark Cave APK download for Android, the first entry in the popular Hopeless series by Upopa Games. The game is free on Google Play, and this page offers the latest version 4.7.0 as an XAPK file that plays fully offline.

About Hopeless: The Dark Cave and How It Plays

A group of sticky, glowing blobs is trapped in the dark. They are armed but terrified, and shadowy creatures are crawling toward them. Your job is to react fast.

Tap the screen to shoot monsters as they appear, but think before you fire: not everything moving in the darkness is an enemy. Hitting one of your fellow blobs costs you a friend, so accuracy matters as much as speed.

You also need to keep an eye on the blobs themselves. If they get too scared, they may end up hurting themselves. Survive as long as you can and keep as many blobs alive as possible.

Weapons, Atmosphere and Content

Waves of predator monsters keep coming after the blobs, and you fight back with a range of weapons including guns, lasers and other fantasy gear. The game mixes a creepy cave atmosphere with cute cartoon characters, giving it a distinctive style.

It is a single-player casual action experience built for short mobile sessions. On Google Play it has been downloaded close to 5 million times and holds a 4.6 out of 5 rating.

If you enjoy it, the series continues with a second and third game that share the same core idea of protecting the blobs and taking down enemies.

The game needs Android 6.0 or later, and the file is only about 90 MB, so it will not take much storage. No internet connection is required to play.

• Version: 4.7.0

Because the file is an XAPK rather than a regular APK, you will need an XAPK installer app. Download the file, open it with the installer, follow the on-screen steps, and launch the game once installation finishes.
