About this game

An eclipse has blocked out the sun and in the perpetual darkness monsters have risen from the shadows.

A small tribe of people have traveled to a ancient dungeon where legend tells of a permanent source of light.

You must make your way through the winding and crumbling ruins, your only weapon a torch. However, when your torch eventually burns out the shadow will take you. Before that happens you must find a way to help those who will come after you.

A Flame in the Dark is played 1 torch at a time. You must explore the dungeon and unlock ways and passages before your torch runs out, so the next torch bearer can get even deeper; and closer to their salvation.

The dungeon is dark and you only have a single torch to light your way. Explore, solve puzzles, and use your time wisely because time is always running out...
