Cave Tablets are an item that can be obtained primarily by exploring and finding Underground Cabins, where they appear as loot within. They are invaluable to finding new rare cave biomes, and for gathering information about these biomes. Cave Tablets have a variant for each biome added by Alex's Caves, but the variant a tablet is hidden until it is properly researched.
