THE LONGING
A hand-drawn adventure about waiting. You play a small Shade, alone deep underground, whose one task is to wait 400 days for a sleeping king to wake. Everything moves slowly, from the walking to the doors, and the timer keeps running while the game is closed. You can explore the caves, furnish a room, and read real classic novels to make the time pass faster. Made by Studio Seufz.
