The Longing
The player controls a shade, who is told to keep watch of a sleeping king for 400 days until he awakens. The catch: these 400 days count down in real-time. It is now up to you to decide what to do with your solitary existence beneath the soil. You are completely on your own in a giant underground cavern, with a number of obstacles to overcome, each of them using the concept of time differently.
