About
Imagine a blend of Lovecraftian horror and the tense gameplay of Papers, Please. In this game, you’re a lighthouse keeper responsible for guiding ships to safety using your radio. But beware – something strange and terrifying lurks nearby, and you must fight to maintain your sanity as darkness closes in!
Story
After a worldwide disaster, the harbor officials brought an old lighthouse back to life, hoping to guide ships through the increasing turmoil. A single keeper was sent to the deserted island to operate it. The safety of ships and the nearby town now depends on him. Meanwhile, his wife and daughter anxiously await his homecoming.
Every night, his work becomes more dangerous. Sailors are reporting sightings of strange creatures that can’t be explained by science. Ships are returning from far-off waters completely empty, with their crews mysteriously gone. In the island’s small fishing town, people are praying to ancient sea gods and trying to revive the dead through rituals.
Can the lighthouse keeper hold onto his mind, keep his loved ones safe, and steer the ships under his care through the dangerous depths? Or will he succumb to the growing darkness hidden beneath the world, like so many others?
