Lost in a pitch-black labyrinth, you work together to find keys, locate the gate, and escape before the darkness and its monsters consume you.

Gameplay

Move through the maze, placing new tiles as your candle reveals them, to collect keys and reach the exit gate together. The fear is getting separated or trapped as explored paths vanish back into darkness and the Wax Eaters close in.
