A downloadable game for Windows

Description:

You find yourself stuck in a cave whilst your searching for a missing scientist Dr Patrick Ottoboni. Uncover the mystery behind the disappearance of the Dr. whilst trying to escape your inevitable fate. There are eight pages around the cave system to learn the fate of Dr Patrick Ottoboni and how to defeat the monster that is Lurking In The Dark. The Idea of the game is for the player to build up the knowledge on the story and the monster to figure out how to kill it.  Compleating this goal means you win the game.

How To Play:

Explore the cave system to find notes that have been left behind. Use the information within the notes to figure out how to defeat the monster. 

The large pulse (Right Click) will alert the monster of your position and it will hunt you down. The trade off of this is that you can see more of the map.

Breathing in will hide you from the monster but will totally blind you.

The notes are scattered around the map and glow a bright white so you can't miss them. To collect the notes just walk into them.
