A mystery puzzle game set in a fantasy city, built on a core mechanic of collecting, transferring and manipulating light.
Story
You play Adeline, a lamplighter in the city of Lysendral who finds herself unexpectedly marked as the rightful heir to the throne of the fallen Lysendrian Empire. Hunted by the enforcers of the city's Arch- Marshal, you must pass the Trials of Light to prove yourself worthy — and uncover the secrets of a divine conspiracy along the way.
Features
- Light as a resource and as the core mechanic.
- A stylised fantasy world in a hand-painted, painterly style.
- Use your light magic to power ancient mechanisms.
- Hide from the guards — but beware what waits in the shadows.
- Linear level design.
