Lantern Depths

Lantern Depths pairs puzzles with a gentle sense of exploration. You move a small explorer through dark caves, using a lantern to reveal paths and solve light-based puzzles. Early rooms are simple, but the game layers in mirrors, moving platforms, and timing challenges.

What I liked most is that it trusts you. There are no intrusive hints, and the puzzles reward observation rather than trial and error. When I finally cracked a tricky room it felt earned.

The whole thing is offline and compact, perfect for a few puzzles at a time. The ending is a little abrupt, but the journey there is lovely.
