As far as I can tell, the entire game is just about exploring each level. Pretty cool concept and music, no challenge, yet.

Was on my way home from work sitting on the tram, about half a mile or so from where the bomb exploded (Nationaltheatret station, for those who know Oslo), and heard an audible "thud". I first thought the tram had rammed a car or something, but it kept driving so I didn't think any more of it. As it drove deeper into central Oslo though, fire alarms could be heard, masses of people were gathered around, some were running and crying. I thought maybe there is a fire or something, but when I noticed loads of ambulances, fire trucks and civilian police vehicles with sirens blazing, I definitely knew something was up. Then someone on the tram checked out the news on their cellphone, and told us that the governmental quarters had been blown up. Checked out the news myself when I got home, and even though it was obviously quite fucked up, I can't say I didn't except such events to never occur in our country. Some people are just crazy enough to perform such acts to make a political statement, whatever it might be and regardless of whether they're a national or international citizen.
It wasn't until later when I heard about the shooting spree that I understood something way more terrible was taking place, and that this wasn't an act of political terrorism - just pure evil insanity. When I went to bed that night the death toll for both the bomb and the shooting was at 17 people, which still is unheard of in this country - but when I woke up the next morning and watched the news and the anchor said that the death toll from the shooting had rised to 84, I couldn't believe my ears. I was sure I had misheard him, so I went online to check it out - turns out it was right.
Completely fucked up, can't believe someone could possibly hate our country or our political system to such a degree that they would be willing to do something like this. I ain't personally affected or know anyone that is affected by the attacks, but I feel deeply sad for everyone that does.
And according to the perpetrator's "manifesto" that's floating around online, an arrest and subsequent trial could be used as further means to propel his propaganda bullshit talk. I think the best course of action would be to hold the trial behind locked doors, away from the media and public eye so he can't spout his bullshit to everyone, and then lock him away forever and forget about him, so he won't gain the satisfaction of seeing his message sent out to everyone. He can rot away, forgotten, while the rest of us move on and continue to work for a stable society and open democracy.

Looking away is not what strengthens society. Exposing the errors in his mindset and providing ways of help to lead people like him on the "right" path will. It is a bad plan to lock away criminals, instead it should be tried to heal/fix them and the underlying problems.

And it is the media's responsibility to handle situations like this in appropriate ways. Which they failed to do right from the beginning.

I agree that providing rehabilitation for criminals and getting them back into society as working and providing members is the correct course of action, it's one of the strengths of our juridical system in my opinion. Exposing his mindset, trying to steer other people away from going down the same path he did. Still, even if he was completely rehabilitated and released, which seems unlikely (especially regarding some of the stuff in his manifesto of craziness), he killed almost 100 people. Even if he got a namechange and/or plastic surgery or whatever, people would find out, and I don't think it'd be unlikely to expect a lynch mob.
And yes, the media haven't really handled this situation appropratiely. Like one of the members of AUF present at the island said, the media attempted to call them on their cells even when they should have been perfectly aware of the fact that they were attempting to hide, or at least used a little bit of common sense.
