Hollow Lantern

Hollow Lantern is a slow, atmospheric adventure that trusts you to explore. You wander a fog-wrapped town, poke at things, and slowly piece together what happened to the people who left. It's more about mood and small discoveries than fast action.

The puzzles are logical and never resort to obscure moon-logic — most of the time the answer is somewhere you already walked past. I appreciated that it lets you take notes in-game, so I never had to scribble on paper.

There's no timer, no online check, and the whole story fits comfortably in a few sittings. If you like quiet games that feel a bit like a short story, this one lingers.
