What is :THE LONGING:?

Unusual mix of an adventure and an idle-game.

Play as a lonely Shade, the last servant of a king who once ruled an underground kingdom. The king’s powers have faded and he falls asleep for 400 days to regain his might. It is your duty to stay in the earthen palace until he awakens.As soon as you start, the game inevitably counts down the 400 days – even when you stop playing and exit the game.It is now up to you to decide what to do with your solitary existence beneath the soil. Don’t stress yourself, you have plenty of time.

Choose your playing style:

Start the game and simply come back after 400 days to see how it ends. You actually don’t have to play the game at all. But the Shade will be even more lonely without you.

Or explore the caves and collect items for your comfortable underground living room. Just send the Shade to take a stroll – the walking speed is slow, but luckily there is no need to hurry.

Read tons of classic literature from Nietzsche to Moby Dick right in the game – or at least have the shade read them. After all, time goes by faster if you learn to keep your mind occupied.

Ignore the king’s commands and advance to the outer regions the cave. It will be a long and dangerous journey into darkness…

How To Make Time Go By Faster?

Read Book

But there are endings that don’t require the 400 days to pass. Also, time goes by faster if you do certain actions. For example, you can read books in the game, and for each page, you read, you get one bonus minute off the countdown. If you make your life more comfortable with paintings, crystals and so forth, time will go by a bit faster. So theoretically, you can finish it in 100 days or less, if you choose to play more actively.

Look at the Water

Look at the water, it was rising. It seems like there’s lots of hidden stuff that might take time like that.
