About the Game

Become the spirit apprentice of a lighthouse keeper, left in charge at the edge of the solar system. Each day, you must keep the Lighthouse running, aid ships seeking help, and withstand the Black Fog creeping ever closer.

Maintain the Lighthouse:

The Lighthouse is both your home and your responsibility. Operate and upgrade its production rooms, refine precious resources, and decide how to spend your limited time and energy. Feed the Lighthouse engine to keep the beacon alive and to guide flying ships through the cold emptiness of space.

Explore the Island:

As the days pass, new rooms and paths become available. Explore Lighthouse Island, discover shortcuts, and master its layout to optimize your movement and efficiency.

Aid Incoming Ships:

Numerous ships seek shelter at your Lighthouse. From Starsea captains and fishermen to refugees and envoys, each ship arrives with its own needs. Decide how to help them with the resources you can spare, and in return, your choices may shape events far beyond the Lighthouse itself.

As the Fog Spreads:

Something ancient has been disturbed. A creeping Fog spreads across the space sector, growing stronger with each passing day. Resources dwindle, the cost of failure rises, and maintaining the Lighthouse becomes ever more difficult. Will it endure the rising tides, or is it destined to be swallowed by the Fog?

Game Features:

  • Spirit Apprentice: Play as a lighthouse spirit, able to fly and dash across the Lighthouse in ways others cannot.

  • Hands-On Management: The Lighthouse has no automation; you must personally visit production rooms and use your powers to animate the machinery within.

  • Room improvements: Upgrade the Lighthouse rooms to adapt to mounting pressure.

  • Narrative Encounters: Special ships bring short, self-contained stories where small acts of service can influence the wider world.
