Hollow Lantern

Hollow Lantern is an adventure game that trusts you to pay attention. You explore a quiet, slightly eerie world by tapping to move and interacting with objects, solving puzzles that always play fair, no moon-logic nonsense. The atmosphere is the real draw, all soft lighting and ambient sound.

I finished it in a few evenings and never once reached for a walkthrough, which says a lot about the puzzle design. Hints are available if you're stuck, tucked away so they never spoil the fun. The story unfolds slowly and stays with you. If you like games that feel like an interactive short film, this one's a keeper.
