This game is downright
I would not recommend this game
I found this game to present a very insulting perspective on blindness. The entire theme of the game is some guy who has his eyes burned out as some kind of terrible punishment and does not care if he lives or dies. Game play backs up this with frustrating task such as trying to find door handles, I'm not kidding. This task is boring and promotes fictitious difficulties relating to blindness, to find the handle you simply randomly grope around on the screen, which I guess the creator of this game thinks is how one finds a door knob as a blind person. The character even says something along the lines of "never thought finding a door nob would feel like a major acomplishment worthy of celebration". What's more is this game is extremely short. It took the game longer to download then it did for me to complete it. Don't get me wrong I love games like the night jar but trust me this game is very different. I understand playing a game is very subjective but I see no redeeming value in this game. In my opinion it's just not worth the ten minutes of your life it will take to download this game, and the seven minutes of bad game play to have to put up with all of the negative themes of blindness.
You make a very good point

I've tried this game and I'm stuck!
I can't seem to get past the guy trying to find the opening to go down. I have tapped all over the screen and no luck! Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm using an iPhone xs max with the latest version of IOS.
