About the Game

A Lighthouse on Rock Bottom is a narrative idle game about confronting depression and healing from your lowest. Take care of yourself, when you have the Energy, and build up Willpower that can upgrade your life little by little.

Immerse yourself in the thoughtful narrative

Healing mentally also takes reflection. Immerse yourself in unique monologue gameplay; guide boats to safety to complete thoughts while a voice-over plays. Every few monologues, continue to the next floor and enter the next step of your journey.

Set in your family's lighthouse, A Lighthouse on Rock Bottom is a comforting narrative-driven experience with authentic writing and endearing artwork.

Features

  • Progress up the lighthouse through 3 floors of evolving mechanics

  • Confront deep emotions with unique idle gameplay

  • Guide boats to safety in fully voiced monologue segments

  • Play at your own pace — stack bottles, play minigames, or create paintings as long as you'd like

  • Reflect on memories, such as office crunch time, lighthouse history, or your first painting
