I enjoyed getting lost in the caves with the recursion! I tabbed out to respond to a DM and when I tabbed back the game didn't capture the mouse again, so I had to restart, would be good to just have an on click event to recapture the mouse!

Game Description
Detective Robert Osborne is exploring the caves underneath the small town of Dryden. Many have gone into the cave system to never come out. Locals believe spirits and ghosts inhabit the cave, but Robert thinks there is a simple explanation for the disappearances - a killer must be on the loose!
How does your game tie into the theme?
Haunted caves are often features of folklore stories. Sometimes ghosts of those who've died in caves haunt them or monsters guard treasure and secrets.
