The Cave Game version of Minecraft, officially known as Cave game tech test,[1][2] was made by Markus "Notch" Persson on May 13, 2009 at 16:55 UTC and is the first known version of Minecraft (then known as Cave Game) to be recorded, though this version was never released to the public.

Cave Game was based on an earlier game that Notch had created called "RubyDung". The demo consisted of only Cobblestone and Grass, and was made to visualize how caves could be generated.

There were no gamemode options. A player was placed in a flat world and was free to explore.

The earliest version of the game can be played through the Minecraft Launcher by allowing Alpha versions and creating a profile to use this version, labelled as "rd-132211".
