## The Longing Mobile Description
An unusual mix of adventure and idle game. In utter loneliness deep below the surface, it&#039;s your task to wait for the awakening of your king... for 400 days.
Play as a lonely Shade, the last servant of a king who once ruled an underground kingdom. The king&#039;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&#039;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&#039;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&#039;s commands and advance to the outer regions the cave. It will be a long and dangerous journey into darkness...

Features
• Slow exploration of a vast, hand-drawn cave.
• Atmospheric Dungeon Synth soundtrack.
• Various endings.
• Lots of well hidden secrets.
• Time-based puzzles.
• A lonely but cute protagonist.

## The Longing Mobile Reviews in United States

### ****- "iCloud saves?"
Would be nice to open on iPad, check in, and then open on mobile later to see progress update.
-- Maclunkie44, 2025-01-04

### ***** "Amazing Game"
This game is such a good break from the constantly changing stimuli of the world. With a super cute main character that reminds you to take things slow, and a chill but entertaining gameplay, this game is so good for my attention span and mental health :)
-- Hcdyjvrjobj, 2024-12-02

### ***** "Latest iOS brings major glitches"
5 stars because I really like the game and want more like it on mobile.

Sadly the latest iOS update brings Game Center notifications which trigger the &quot;WAIT...&quot; screen whenever they pop up, including on achievements. This means that *any major event gets interrupted*.
-- El Nerdo Degeek, 2024-11-13

### ***** "Stunning⭐️"
I adore this game. The animation, the story, the cheeky little shade. I’m so attached to him! I really appreciated the long form of this game. It makes finishing a task so satisfying! I haven’t enjoyed solving a “puzzle” (like finding the pick ax) so much in years. I’ve discovered 4 of the 5 endings. Can’t wait to figure out the last one!
-- Lindsayisawesome3, 2024-09-16

### ***** "Amazingly obsessed!"
There are fewer than few truly engaging games, and this one in particular have me emotionally hooked. I wanted to achieve every milestone, but at the same time ending its longing. Might play it again to unlock the rest.
-- Marina nio nio, 2024-08-14

### ***** "❤️❤️❤️"
Amazing. The animations and story is so beautiful. True, you need a lot of patience, but I always enjoy playing. I cannot wait for when the 400 days are over, I wonder what will happen! If you are looking for an easy, relaxing game, it’s this!
-- Peanut The Elephant Queen, 2024-08-01

### ***** "There&#039;s nothing else like it"
I played it on PC first and it was an utterly unique experience. It etched an eternal memory in the darkest depths of my mind. Very few games harbor true magic. This is one.
-- iestynne, 2024-04-23

### *---- "Nope. Sorry"
I desperately tried to like this game. It’s too slow. I’m upset that I paid five dollars for this game.
-- Baywatersports, 2024-03-31

### *---- "Very frustrating…"
Can’t get past the SUPER LONG intro and when I quit it restarts the darn intro every time. It’s almost like it doesn’t want you to actually play the game.
-- Kris Krinkle, 2024-03-07

### **--- "Boooooooring"
This can easily compete for the most boring game in the history of gaming.. 🥱🥱 
How could you get the nerve to come out with this??
-- Dr Y Khachaba, 2024-02-18
