ABOUT THE GAME

The bell has fallen silent and a thick, creeping murk has swallowed the land. Only one traveler still carries a light. Grab your lantern, become the Lantern Wayfarer and bring the beacons back to life! Run, jump, wall-jump and dash across dangerous platforms. Spirit platforms only appear inside your lanterns glow, so use your light wisely. Hold the flare to scout the darkness ahead, push back gloom wisps and shadow creatures, and stomp your enemies. Light every beacon, find the waylamps to save your progress, and face the giant shadow beast Murkmaw at the end of each world.
