The second part of the game Trapped, called "The dark" has been released by Rodrigo. As in the first part, this adventure is really well done. The history has many many twists so I recommend you to play again the first episode to refresh your memory.
Estimated procrastination time: 2 hours
PS: the server may be a bit slow so you may have to reload a couple of times in order to download the game.

Trapped - part 1 - the white rabbit
The white rabbit is the first episode of this adventure series cerated by the brazilian Rodrigo Roesler. It avoids the cliches of the escape the room games and revisits the good old adventure games. As the author says, he did not want people clicking blindly everywhere. All the problems and solutions are visible, even if they are not too logical (pear seeds with steroids?).
A great game to restart the daily posts (hopefully).
