SHORT DESCRIPTION
-----------------
Tiny dungeon puzzle game. One flare. Ten steps. Draw a path through a
forgotten dungeon before your light runs out. Avoid dangerous traps and evil
creatures. 20 quests, 100 rooms.


LONG DESCRIPTION
----------------
A flare lasts 10 steps.

Somewhere below the camp, a forgotten dungeon is waiting in the dark.

Draw your route through each room, press Go, and watch your explorer follow
it, step by step. Your flare burns for exactly ten steps. Reach the exit, or a
spare flare, before the light runs out.

Each quest adds a new danger: crumbling floors, flooded halls, hunting shades,
skeletons, arrow traps, spreading lava and even echoes of yourself...

Fight back with everything you find: spare flares, a sword, a shield, levers
to throw and crates to push.
