Some lights never made it indoors on the Longest Night. They still wander the plaza — small, forgetful, easily scattered. The lamplighter's apprentice herds them to the heart-hall gate before the fog rolls in, because every stray the fog takes is a name gone from the Archive by morning.
How to play
Move the lantern by dragging, or with the arrow keys. Strays flee from its glow — so herd them from behind, like a sheepdog.
Push gently toward the golden gate on the right. Push too hard and the flock scatters; gold strays panic easily but count double.
The fog wall keeps advancing from the left, and it keeps whatever it touches.
When its face flares violet, the fog is about to lunge — get the flock moving before it does.
Bring enough strays home to survive the night. A perfect flock earns a bonus.
