Tag: The Longing

My time beneath the mountain was limited to a short stint on my lunch break on Day 19, so I was reluctant to do anything that I might get to enthralled in. I wasn’t looking to push anything along because it would be just my luck that something interesting would happen and I’d be stuck…

After a rather uneventful Day 17, I sadly didn’t have much time to make Day 18 particularly fruitful either, though I did have an interesting thought that I put into motion. I had only the briefest of times to spend with Monty yesterday, so rather than try to cram anything especially exciting in, I used…

Day 17 was a quiet day, relative to some of the exciting discoveries of Days 15 and 16, but I have no doubt that more intriguing times are just on the horizon. It might be the first day since I started playing The Longing when I can honestly say that I have really very little…

While I had an accidentally extended session with Monty yesterday, it was today when I arguably made more progress, with an awful lot going on in just a short time. While I was keen to do more digging at home, I also wanted to start patrolling the wider kingdom in search of one more piece…

“When will my longing end?” Monty From Monty’s opening words, I guessed that he hadn’t enjoyed his evening digging in the [mushroom mines] 😅. But that was an attitude for yesterday – Day 12 is in the rear view mirror and Day 13 was in front of us. After a frankly rubbish day yesterday, I…

What a roller coaster of a emotion Day 12 turned out to be! 😅 The highs peaked immediately and then lows kept on coming, and while it was a little disappointing, we did manage a bit of a longer session than the past few evenings, which was nice. I picked up my Switch, closed down…

It was my third night in a row where I didn’t get to hang with Monty until really late in the evening, so Day 11 it was another especially short session. And even more so than in recent days, we didn’t have time for exploration, and didn’t offer much more than some hard labour for…

My work day and more sports (in person rather than TV sports this time… Great win lads, well done!) meant that I had another short play session for Day 10, but I’m pleased that I’m sticking to my plan of at least a playing little bit every day. Day 10 was a day with plenty…

While I was keen to bounce back after a pretty disastrous Day 8, I didn’t have much time to spend with Monty on Sunday, with my gaming backlog and TV sports already on my agenda. I kept the play time really short, but my, oh, my was it a successful little session! I picked up…

Let me begin by saying that I was an idiot for forgetting to screenshot the new questions that Monty wanted to ask The Face on Day 7. And let me follow up by saying that I made an even bigger, and more bone-headed mistake on Day 8. One that, when you read it, will lead…
