You assume the role of a lonely Shadow — a creature who is a loyal servant of the King of the Underworld. The ruler has exhausted his life force and has therefore chosen not to enter a deep sleep for 400 lives to restore his strength. The character's duty is to await the ruler's arrival. From the moment you can download THE LONGING Download it for free via torrent, install it, and begin the storyline. The game will begin counting down 400 real-world days, and it continues to do so even if it's turned off and no internal actions are performed. So, you'll have to decide how such a tiny creature will eke out its existence in a place hidden from the light. There's no need to rush — there's plenty of time. You need to find your own playstyle — either start the game, then turn it off, and wait 400 days to see the final ending. You don't even need to log in to do this. But without a player, the little character will be bored and lonely. Explore the cave and collect the necessary items to make your underground shelter cozy. Just send Shadow on a quest — he moves slowly, and has plenty of time. You can read a considerable amount of literature right in the game, from classics to contemporary writers, or let your character do it themselves. Time will pass faster when there's something to do. You can ignore the overlord's advice and venture into the distant caves without permission. Traveling in pitch darkness will be difficult and dangerous. Many obstacles can only be overcome after a certain amount of time or by using previously hidden items. Key features: - Many different endings. - There are timed puzzles. - Cute main character. - A slow exploration of a vast location, painted by nature itself. - Unusual musical accompaniment. - A huge number of all kinds of hidden secrets and mysteries.
