Why Early Access?

“This is an Early Access area of the full game. In the final version, we plan to interconnect several such areas into an open world with hidden mysteries and a narrative arc. Early Access versions will allow us to collect feedback on puzzle mechanics and difficulty - and whether or not we are achieving the targeted atmosphere of the game. We have developed underlying themes and a narrative for The Lighthouse and will use feedback from Early Access versions to ensure it is landing in the way we envisage.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We plan to occasionally update and extend this Early Access version to collect feedback to influence the full game. This is a long running project and we expect to be in Early Access for at least 1 year.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan to make the full version a large open world with numerous additional puzzle mechanics - additionally we plan many secrets to be revealed and a narrative to illuminate your mind.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“This is a fully playable version and all the features listed in the "About This" section are already implemented, please refer to that section for details. There are currently 2 puzzle mechanics (but we plan several more), the area can be fully explored and there are several puzzles to solve of increasing difficulty.
