Story
As you awake in the deep dark cavern, you remember only two things. Your name is Nobody, and you are not supposed to be here. To escape, you must drag yourself through the treacherous cave and make sure not to get killed by the roaming cyclops or his servants. As you explore the cave, you will find notes from others trapped and slowly come to recall a conversation you had with the cyclops that calls the place home.
