A downloadable game for Windows

Mathilda Ayume is a famous explorer, as she scouts the world's hidden treasures alongside her teammate for the last twelve years, Rodolphe Digdurt.

The two of them are now aiming at the treasure of the Ancient Maze, a cave so deadly no explorer ever came back alive from.
However, as Mathilda jumped first inside the cave, Rodolphe closed the entrance on her, explaining it was his masterplan to avenge the fact Mathilda refused to date him when they started working together!

Now, Mathilda is left all alone in the darkness of the Ancient Maze.

Find the treasure to exit the cave!
