Caves & Bears Game

- A SECRET SOCIETY DICE PUZZLE -



If you've read our Origin Story, then you know that for decades, the secrets of the caves and the bears existed only within one family.
Born around holiday tables in Western Australia, this unusual dice game challenged players to discover a hidden pattern concealed within three ordinary dice. Children, cousins, friends, parents, grandparents — even entire rooms full of adults — would scribble notes, compare theories, and chase clues in an attempt to solve the mystery.
Those who believed they'd cracked it could request The Test. Success meant initiation into a secret society, complete with a ceremonial oath and, as a new Guardian of the Caves & Bears, a solemn promise to never reveal the secrets of the caves and the bears.
Now, for the first time, that tradition is being shared with the world.
Our Caves & Bears game is an individual challenge combining a puzzle element, group camaraderie, and a unique secret society experience. It rewards curiosity, observation, pattern recognition, and persistence. Some (ridiculously brilliant) players can solve it in an evening. Most others will take multiple sessions over days, weeks, or even years to uncover the truth.
Will you solve the puzzle and become a Guardian: Keeper of Secrets?
Bonus: First 30 orders will also receive a bear-related complimentary gift.
