What do you think?

Achievement Unlocked: Reached China

can play it neither online with adobe flash nor if i download it because adobe air says it's damaged and 7-zip doesn't unpack it right

Installer doesn't work. Adobe AIR says that the installer is damaged.

Excellent. I found this game to be genuinely chilling, taking the awkward control scheme from old-school dungeon crawlers like Phantasy Star 1 and combining it with the PlayStastion 1 flavoured antics of something like Silent Hill for the visual aesthetic.

I found myself getting hopelessly lost very quickly, and constantly falling down deeper and deeper into the nightmarish labyrinth and steadily losing hope really drew me in.

I also feel that this title has a large degree of subtlty too, like how the rooms gradually get darker and darker as you decend, or how the walls begin to flicker outside your normal frame of vision... How you managed to get this to work using Adobe Flash I'll never know.

If I had some gripes with the game it's that it kind of runs out of surprises towards the end, and once I realised that I was in no danger of a failure state or similar it lost a lot of its 'kick'.

Definately worth the time I spent on it though, and hopefully I'll get around to the sequel some day.

how do you open air files?

You have fallen into a vast underground maze. Can you find your way out, or will you end up trapped in darkness forever?
