Your goal is to navigate the tunnels safely in hopes of finding your sister Mary. All you have is a torch to light some of the way and your natural intuition. As you make progress, the hero will make comments about what he senses. He'll move at a constant jog pace which is thankfully fast enough to outrun enemies. Their torch is just bright enough to light up a section of the hero's current position and can be used to peer around corners.
Despite the scenario and your character's situation, this is not a combat game. You're quite vulnerable in the underground where there are vicious creatures just waiting for you to come into their field of view. When you have a weapon, you can defend yourself though this comes at a great risk. You need to focus more on exploration and collecting objects to unlock different parts of the underground. If a monster catches you or does too much damage, it's game over and you'll need to start from the last checkpoint.
