Hi BrokenEnd, thanks for playing 'Inside the box', there's good news! This whole series of games (bar a couple) focuses on the Crooked Man! One half focus on his history, the other half focus on the apprentice trying to find him). I would reccomend you find the 'Chaos Prince' in 'Only when you sleep' - you might someone very interesting 👀
Also, if you want to continue the apprentice's story of finding him, 'the Pursuers of Mythic truth' might work for you ✨
