In the Roblox survival game MEDVED (created by Roblox High IQ Society), cave systems contain multiple collectible pages necessary for uncovering the story and unlocking the bunker. The map features distinct subterranean areas: a shallow surface cave, multiple descending tunnel networks leading to an abandoned mine, and a subterranean labyrinth known as the Star Maze.
The Surface Bear Cave
The most accessible cavern on the map sits near the outer snow paths close to starting cabin structures. Players identify this location through an in-game lore note resting inside:
| Cave Characteristic | In-Game Observation |
|---|---|
| Cave Type | Surface cavern |
| Distinctive Note | "The first Cave of many and the only one that doesn't go deep underground" |
| Danger Level | Moderate (surface Medveds can patrol outside the entrance) |
| Vertical Layout | Flat ground level with no drops |
Because this cave does not descend underground, escaping pursuing mutant bears is straightforward compared to other cavern entrances.
Deep Underground Caves and Mine Tunnels
Beyond the surface cavern, the map features multiple cave mouths that drop down into an extensive subterranean network.
Golden Drill and Cliffside Descents
Following the paths leading away from the laboratory area toward the golden drill marker reveals cliffside openings. Dropping into these tunnels takes players below the snow line into pitch-black passageways. Inside these routes, players encounter:
- Narrow pathways where mutant bear variants can corner runners easily.
- Research notes detailing oxygen introduction, phenotypic changes, and "Test subject 1238."
- Power generator equipment tucked inside dead-end alcoves.
The Abandoned Mines
Following the deep cave system to its lowest point leads directly into an abandoned mine shaft structure. The deepest mine tunnel contains:
- The "Indestructible" lore page near the rocky dead ends.
- Tight turning corridors that require a flashlight to navigate.
- Vertical drops that prevent players from retracing their steps without following specific ascending side tunnels.
Star Maze Cavern Entrance
The Star Maze represents a unique subterranean cavern marked by warning signs reading "Star maze fear the Beast that lurks beneath."
Accessing the maze requires descending into an underground facility opening:
- Terminal screens inside provide illuminated directional arrows guiding players along the correct turns.
- Wall lockers stand throughout the corridors, allowing players to hide from the flying entity and maze bears when proximity audio cues trigger.
- Reaching the end of the maze allows interaction with a bell, rewarding the Bell Ringer badge and opening the gate to the final bunker near the surface statue.
Navigation Strategies for Medved Caves
Caves feature narrow passages and limited sightlines, making bear encounters hazardous. Specific tools and movement tactics increase survival odds:
- Purchase a Page Tracker: Available from the in-game shop, this device displays directional indicators pointing directly toward remaining uncollected notes across both surface and underground zones.
- Maintain light sources: Caverns lose all ambient daylight. Running through unlit tunnels without a flashlight regularly leads to dead ends.
- Manage defensive gear: Stun tasers interrupt chasing bears temporarily, giving players time to reach climbing points or cave exits. Soda items offer temporary speed increases to outrun faster variants in straight cave shafts.
- Locate exit ramps early: Several deep caves feature one-way drop-offs. Checking for upward ramps or connecting tunnels before looting notes prevents becoming trapped.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which cave in Medved is safest to enter?
The surface bear cave is the safest because it remains entirely level with the outside terrain. Players can grab its lore note and run straight back into the open snow without navigating drops or dead-end tunnels.
Where does the Star Maze lead?
Navigating the Star Maze leads to an exit chamber containing an interactable bell. Ringing this bell activates the entrance mechanism for the bunker located near the two-star stone statue on the surface.
How many pages are hidden across the map?
There are 32 collectible pages scattered across Medved's surface landmarks, caves, and underground mazes. Collecting all 32 allows players to interact with the bunker mushroom to trigger a Medved transformation.
