The Longing is a unique adventure/idle game released in 2020 by Studio Seufz. The premise is rooted in German folklore (the Kyffhäuser legend): you play as a Shade tasked with waiting 400 real-time days for a sleeping King to awaken. The clock continues to count down even when the game is closed. It is praised for its atmosphere, philosophical themes, and its subversion of typical "fast-paced" gaming mechanics.
