How it begins
The game opens with a quote from Hamlet.
You wake up, hungover, in a small cave, and carrying your pocket-knife.
As you explore your surroundings, you remember why you were drinking: the volcano on this small island is about to erupt, and you were celebrating your last night here. You should try to get off the island as soon as possible.
