“Emberheart Games, the Slovenian studio behind this game, might just end up setting a new standard in indie gaming.”

About This Game



The crypts, once a sacred place of mourning, is now a place of corruption, where dark rituals are practiced, unbeknownst to the world outside..

Survive as a Courier on his first errand to the ominous crypts in this puzzle adventure game. Your main tool to achieve the delivery is a magic torch, which you use to illuminate your path, defend from darkness and solve puzzles.




The main aspect of the game is your magic torch. The environment will react to its flames in different ways so it will be common for you to toggle the flame on and off throughout the game. Some enemies will leave you alone while others will try to extinguish the torch. It's up to you to learn all about them and use that knowledge to your advantage. You can lure some enemies into traps or sneak past them. Will you let Dark Moths drink your light or attack you? Find riddles in the dark that only the magic flame can reveal. Enemies and puzzles should not be your main worry though...

Flame is a limited resource, which keeps you safe from the dark spirits – it must never run out!
