It's free, easy (?) to play and oddly compelling. There's no flashy graphics, no complicated key combinations, the action is delivered as a narrative, only you decide from a list of options what our heroine (Alice) does next. Unfortunatly the choices I've made so far have resulted in her death, some more gruesome than others, but....It's free, did I mention that? Get it, try it, you have nothing to lose, except Alice's life.

The Bottom of the Well, despite being short, turned out to be a surprisingly engaging and challenging little VN. For a free game, this is absolutely worth your while.
