The Awesome Gorilla Tag Caves Map
The Gorilla Tag Caves Map is pretty awesome, and very unique as far as the many maps in Gorilla Tag go.
This is because the caves in Gorilla Tag aren’t quite like any other map. You see, while most Gorilla Tag maps have a lot of wide open spaces, cliffs to climb, and things to jump off of high into the air, the Gorilla Tag caves are much smaller with low ceilings and tight spaces.
So playing in the caves of Gorilla Tag feels less like swinging from tree to tree like in the Gorilla Tag forest map, or swimming in the wide open waters of the Gorilla Tag beach map.
Playing infection in the caves feels more like playing hide and seek, with a lot of corners to hide in, and hallways to run away from a tagged player in.
So the Gorilla Tag caves are actually pretty great for new players who don’t yet have the skills to wall climb in Gorilla Tag or do a lot of fancy tricks and get to the hard to reach hiding spots.
So whether you’re a new player just getting into the game or an experienced monkey that wants a different way to play the game, check out the Gorilla Tag caves. Here we’ll talk about how to get to the cave in Gorilla Tag, and all of the sweet things you’ll find in the Gorilla Tag cave.

How To Get To The Gorilla Tag Caves
To find the caves in Gorilla Tag is a pretty easy thing.
When you spawn into your monke treehouse like always when you start the game, don’t go out of any of the holes in the sides of the treehouse like you usually would to get to the forest, canyon, or city.
Instead check out the hole in the bottom of the treehouse, between the cosmetics station and the way to the canyon.
The way to the Gorilla Tag caves
You can already see the glowing of some of the pink crystals down there, more on that later.
For now jump down the hole, and make your way down the twisting passage. You’ll start to hear water, and then you’ll see it.
Follow the waterfall to find the center of the cave
A little waterfall leading into a stream that leads further down into the caves. Pretty awesome!
Keep following the water downwards.
Oh, and if you want to feel like you’re on a slip and slide, a huge one, and don’t want to go all the way down to the beach to use one of the water slides there, just get into the water and slide your way down. It’s a ton of fun.
The water will pull you further down into the caves, where you’ll see the giant crystal.
This giant beautiful crystal dominates the center of the caves
The crystal is the center of the Gorilla Tag caves map, and once you’ve made it here you’re really ready to start caving in Gorilla Tag.
The scoreboard is down at the bottom of the crystal, and if the river slides you to the bottom, don’t worry, there are a couple of ropes next to the crystal that you can use to climb back up.
You’ll also notice that when you touch the crystal it will make a musical sounds, all of the glowing crystals inside the cave do that.
This is great, because not only does it sound nice, but you can also hear when other monkeys are touching the crystals, which can give you a huge advantage in knowing where they are.
Anyway now that we know how to get to the caves map in Gorilla Tag, let’s talk about all of the amazing things there are to find inside of them.
How To Get Around the Gorilla Tag Caves
So to give you an idea of how the caves in Gorilla Tag are laid out, we’re going to split them into levels, like the floors of a house.
The highest level, or the top floor, is where you enter the caves, the big open pit surrounding the crystal. This area does give you a lot of space to wall climb (though that’s really hard here) and try to juke opponents. At least it has more space than the rest of the cave.
It’s got some crystals, the two ropes to climb up in the center, and a bunch of rocks to bounce around on, good fun but not what makes the cave map really unique.
As far as the cave goes this is actually pretty spacious, a lot of room to run around
You can see the next floor, we’ll call it the third floor, below here on some of the little wooden ledges that surround the big crystal in the center.
The highest ones are little cubby holes with some rocks in them. Not really big, and not fantastic for hiding, but if you play it just right you can juke out someone chasing you by running into and out of them really quickly.
These upper ledges just lead into small rooms
There are a few of these holes, but below them is where things get really interesting.
The next lowest level, we’ll call it the second floor, is where the Gorilla Tag caves really start to become caves.
Near the scoreboard on the ground floor you’ll see another wooden ledge in the side of the wall, but this one leads into a cave mouth that you can’t see all the way inside of.
It’s a little high off of the ground, but if you jump really hard with both arms you can easily make it from the ground up to this ledge. This is the entrance to the second floor of the caves.
The way to the second floor from the central crystal
The second floor is pretty interesting because it’s smaller than the lowest floor, the one below it, but still has a lot of fun twisting passageways and places to hide.
If you’re trying to tag someone you can also hang out on the second floor and wait for them to pass by below you, before jumping down at them and tagging them when they least expect it.
The second floor has a lot of places to jump down to the lowest floor of the Gorilla Tag caves
The second floor has a lot of spots that hang out over the biggest caverns of the lower floor below it, and there are also some spots where you can jump up to the second floor from the lowest floor.
So if you want to get really tricky you can hang out on the second floor to hide, or surprise someone.
Now for where the magic really happens, the lowest floor of the caves. There are two entrances to it. One is next to the ledge leading to the second floor.
One of the entrances to the lowest floor from the central crystal
Another entrance is nearby on the other side of the scoreboard from this entrance.
It’s where the stream of water starting at the waterfall at the entrance to the caves leads, right through the doorway.
The other entrance to the lowest floor of the Gorilla Tag cave, just follow the water
The lowest floor of the caves is the biggest by far, and has a ton of great things to explore and see.
So now that we’ve covered how to get to each area of the cave, and how the floors are laid out, let’s talk about all of the awesome things there are to find.
The Awesome Things in the Gorilla Tag Caves
So what’s so great about the Gorilla Tag cave? Well a lot of things that you won’t find anywhere else in this VR game.
First there’s a little animal friend for you to make. No, not another monkey, or all of the friends you might make playing Gorilla Tag, a little bat!
You’ll know the bat in the caves is nearby when you hear it’s wings beating the air and going whoosh whoosh.
The bat flies around, mostly in the center around the big crystal, randomly and kind of bounces off of the walls. If you manage to get close and grab it you can even hold them.
You can catch the bat
When you let go, the bat goes back to flying around.
There’s also some pools of water to swim around (and maybe hide in). They even have an underwater passage leading from one to the other, a great way to move around without being seen easily.
Swimming is always fun in Gorilla Tag, and the caves have some pools you can swim in
This and all of the caverns and passages leading to it make the caves a great Gorilla Tag map for hiding and running around in.
Playing infection in this map is fantastic even if you’re new to the game, and has a lot of easy walls and slopes to climb and bounce around in. It’s not as wide open as other maps and gives you a lot of places to hide.
I’ve saved the best for last for you though, with something you might have noticed in our previous screenshots.
Remember the big crystal? How it and all of the other ones in the cave walls made sounds whenever you touched them? Well it gets even better.
All around the lowest floor of the caves are these colorful crystals, and each makes a different sound when you touch them.
These musical crystals are all over the lowest floor
Some form little paths too, and you practically make music while you move over top of them.
It sounds very cool and gives a musical vibe to the cave ambiance that otherwise would just be echoes and the dripping of water off of stalagtites.
There’s even a circular ring of these colorful stones that form a piano that stretches around you while you’re in the center. You could actually play a song on this thing.
A crystal piano, very cool
So even if you’re not playing Infection and just want to hang out in Casual, there are a lot of awesome things to play around with and explore in the caverns.
You could even play a regular game of hide and seek, or even make music in the Gorilla Tag caves.
That’s all we’ve got for you about the Gorilla Tag caves. This is definitely a unique and fun Gorilla Tag map that doesn’t quite feel like any others, and will definitely give you a lot of intense and heart pounding memories as you’re sprinting down its small hallways as fast as your monke arms can carry you. Enjoy!
