A console window should open, and the game should start there.

You may see a menu or a short intro. Use your keyboard to make choices.
Common controls may include:
- typing a number
- pressing Enter
- entering a short word or command
- following the prompts shown on screen
If the game asks for a language choice, pick the one you want before you continue.
The game name and topics suggest that it works with Ollama. If the release expects Ollama on your computer, use this setup:
- Install Ollama if the game asks for it.
- Start Ollama before you open the game.
- Keep Ollama running while you play.
- Make sure the game can reach the local Ollama service.
If the game does not start, check whether Ollama is open and ready.
The game is a console game, so most actions happen through text.
You may need to:
- choose actions from a menu
- collect items
- mix or combine materials
- progress through alchemy tasks
- answer prompts from the game
Read each line before you press a key. Some choices may change the next step in the game.
The repository topics point to English, Russian, and Ukrainian language support.
That means the game may offer one or more of these languages:
- English
- Russian
- Ukrainian
If a language menu appears, pick the language you know best. If the game starts in a different language, look for a language option in the first screen or main menu.
If you want the smoothest start on Windows, follow this order:
- Download the release file.
- Extract it if it is packed in a ZIP file.
- Check for a README or text file in the release folder.
- Start Ollama if the game needs it.
- Run the game file.
- Keep the console window open while you play.
If the game includes config files, leave them in the same folder as the game file.
After extraction, you may see files such as:
- the main game file
- a config file
- text files with instructions
- asset folders
- a data folder
Do not move files around unless you know what they do. The game may depend on the folder layout.
Try these steps if the game does not open:
- Run the game file again
- Make sure the ZIP file was fully extracted
- Check that Windows did not block the file
- Start Ollama first if the game needs it
- Close other heavy apps and try again
- Download the release again if the file looks broken
If the console closes too fast, open it from the folder or check for a start file in the release package.
