Lantern is a cosy night-time runner. Walk fifteen dark roads, keep your flame alive, and follow the letters home to your lost dog, Pip.
Your lantern walks on its own. Slide anywhere to steer. Whatever your light touches is real, and everything else waits in the dark.
Move your pointer or finger over the phone to light the road.
Every flask you catch adds seconds to your flame. Run dry and the dark closes in.
Tides that swallow the path. Gusts in the fields. Mine carts rolling across the tracks. No two roads feel the same.
On the night of the storm, your dog slipped her lead and ran. An old lamplighter called Marigold found her, and she has left a letter on every road for you.
She sleeps with her nose pointed back the way you will come. Every single night.
Thirty letters. One very good dog.
Choose from five lights, each with a power of its own. Then pick a frame, a metal and a charm to hang from it.
Everyone gets the same road, with the same flasks in the same places. Share your score card and see who went furthest.
Soon, on iPhone and Android at the same time. Join the list and we will email you the day it is out.
Lantern is free. You can buy embers or remove the optional ads, but everything in the game can be earned by playing.
Only one kind, and only if you choose it: after your flame goes out you can watch a short video to keep going. No banners, nothing mid-run.
No. It is dark, but cosy. There are moths, puddles and the odd grumpy sheep. Pip is safe and waiting for you.
No. Lantern plays offline. You only need a connection for the optional video, purchases and playing with a friend.
Leave your email and we will tell you the moment Lantern is out.
