Candle

Updated v1.1.17

Candle is a atmospheric puzzle-platformer where you control a character navigating dark environments using a flickering flame as your only light source. You must manage your candle's dwindling light while avoiding hazards such as traps, enemies, and collapsing terrain. Solve environmental puzzles by lighting torches, activating mechanisms, and manipulating shadows to progress. The flame can be carried, placed, or thrown to illuminate paths and reveal hidden dangers, requiring careful timing and resource conservation to survive each area.

About this game

Candle Overview

Candle is an adventure with challenging puzzles. Play as Teku, a young man on a dangerous journey to rescue his tribe’s shaman from the evil Wakcha-Clan. But the way is littered with sinister traps and difficult obstacles. To master these challenges you need to have keen eyes and a good sense for your environment, or your next step may be your last.

But Teku has a special gift: his left hand is a candle. Let it be a bright beacon to drive off your enemies or to shed light on dark places. Gorgeous hand-painted watercolor visuals give Candle that special flair, as all backgrounds and characters have been carefully drawn and then scanned, picture after picture. The game consistently feels like a living painting.
