About This Game

The light you carry is your only guide through shifting shadows. Using keyboard and mouse, you move not just through space but through perception itself — revealing hidden paths, puzzles, and quiet secrets. Along the way, nine kinds of Gems can be found, traded, or crafted. Each alters the way you see, move, or connect with what surrounds you. Yet light alone is not enough — the world speaks through its strange inhabitants, and how you respond shapes what you come to understand. Every conversation, every silence, leaves a trace on the journey toward truth.

  • Explore and Illuminate

    The Light you carry is not a weapon, but a guide. It reveals paths, hidden corners, and quiet truths that only appear when you’re willing to pause, shift your perspective, and pay attention.

  • Collect, Craft, and Barter

    What you gather can be crafted into what you need, but sometimes progress demands trade, or even sacrifice. A gem, an object, a fragment of light — what you choose to keep, to give, or to let go of can alter the course of zour journey.

  • Choices That Weigh

    Dialogue with those you meet is not filler — it is the thread of the story. Your words, and your silences, decide what you understand and how you move through their world.

  • Puzzles and Exploration

    Puzzles are not locks to be forced, but invitations. They ask for patience, for presence. They connect spaces and ideas — mostly not through tutorials or glowing arrows, but through your own attention.

  • A Shifting World

    Reality bends. Landscapes move. What seems certain dissolves in shadow. Your only compass is light, intuition, and the willingness to walk without knowing where the path leads.

  • The 10th Gem

    Nine Gems can be found — each shaping perception, expanding illumination, or shifting interaction. But beyond them waits the 10th Gem, not of power but of balance. To reach it is not victory — it is recognition.
