Description
Outwit Evil in a Supernatural Mechanical World

Pass through a shimmering portal into a world teeming with invention, discovery... and evil. An exotic parallel universe is terrorized by a dark being. Alien technology, unearthly treachery, and brain-twisting danger skulk around every craggy cliff and corner. You are summoned on a rescue mission; lives and worlds hang in the balance. Do you have the courage and imagination to leave your world and enter the unknown?

Lighthouse creator Jon Bock invites you to journey to a hand-crafted world of exotic architecture, inventions, and characters. Drawn with brilliant precision and tinged with ageless folktale imagery, Lighthouse is a visual and literal masterpiece that pulls you into its beckoning beam of hope.
  • You are the beacon of hope in a strange and desolate world.
  • Fascinating characters provide dues to solve a mystery.
  • You alone must learn the lessons of technology gone mad.
  • Complex mechanical devices transport you into an alternate world.
  • Fathom elaborate puzzles to aid in your search.

Memories

Played this alot as a kid so its nice to revisit some childhood memories. Sadly, there is a game breaking crash at the temple when you have to teleport back to the lab.

Is this helpful to you?

Awesome Game

Played this game over 20 years ago and didn't have a clue about what to do. Very nostalgic and fun room escape type of game.

Oh, the memories..

I remember repeatedly renting this game at my local library when I was a kid.... Was a fan of strange and unique places to explore in games, so I kept going... The world is beautiful and sounds great, I loved the aestetics of the other dimension but.. Just never managed to finish it at some point I just gave up. I Guess I got stuck or got bored near the endgame. Really considered buying it again as I untiul recently had the original disks, but decided not to. If, like me you like exploring strange desolate lands, seeing alien vistas and figuring out strange machinery I still recommend this game!
