About the Game

Leave a Light is a challenging survival horror game that rejects the idea of scripted jumpscares. All moments of terror occur naturally, and all are deadly. You are never safe.

STORY
You play as Nathan, a young man whose only chance out of debt is the final will of his estranged father, lost somewhere in his remote manor estate. Trapped in the manor by a storm, Nathan soon discovers that dark secrets lie hidden in the manor's shadows - along with a dark force that pursues him from them. With a single flashlight serving as his only means of survival, Nathan must keep his light sources close.

FEATURES
  • Completely organic jumpscares - every surprise is orchestrated collaboratively between the player, the environment, and the thing that lurks within the manor
  • A rich story told through discovered notes, documents, and letters
  • Four modes of increasing challenge and difficulty
  • Each difficulty mode comes with unique lore to discover
  • A secret ending accessible to those who discover all of the manor's secrets

Warning: This game game features flashing lights and gameplay is heavily dependent on audio cues.
