I must be an idiot :) - patzi - 04-25-2011
I just got this game (anxiously awaiting after the Penumbra series which I was totally addicted to), but I can't seem to get startede. I don't know the interface, how to move....I tried the mouse wheel, nothing. I found the water and the door that won't open but that's it. I can't go anywhere period. I read a walkthrough that said hit the run key....duh where's the run key? I downloaded the game from Amazon so don't have the stuff that came with it, unfortuately. I don't even know how to exit the darn thing. Please don't laugh too much, I'm really an old lady who just is a kid at heart but not as savvy as you guys.

No problem =) ok, W is forward, A is left, Dis right and S is backwards =) Thats how to walk,
SHIFT key is run,
I think CTRL is crouch...
And then moving the mouse is how to look around,
Left click picks items up,
holding the left mouse button down and pushing or pulling will open doors,
TAB opens your inventory,
ESC brings up the menu.
Thats all =)
Enjoy,
Edd.

Turn hints on for the first few levels. It will demonstrate how to use all the controls.

This game is plenty scary, you're in for a ride.

Well you must be since you just called yourself an idiot in front of a bunch of people you don't even know
