Hollow Lantern

Hollow Lantern is a hand-drawn adventure where you explore a foggy coastal town, poke at objects, and slowly piece together why everyone left. It's light on puzzles and heavy on atmosphere, which suited me fine.

Tapping around feels natural, hint options are there if you get stuck, and nothing punishes you for wandering. I ended up wandering a lot, just to look at the art.

It's a couple of evenings long, quiet and a little sad, and the ending stuck with me. A lovely thing to play with headphones before bed.
