Candle Knight

Candle Knight is a 2.5D action-adventure platformer in which you play as an enchanted candle holder trying to restore light to its home. You explore a ruined, abandoned castle, fight creatures in the shadows, traverse platforming challenges and solve puzzles. The flame you wield can reveal new abilities and open paths to unseen areas.

Explore the castle

The castle includes enchanted libraries, balconies and a perilous armory. Its environments contain characters to meet and stories to discover, each offering more insight into the surreal world and your place in it.

Fight with fire

Use your flame to battle mysterious foes and illuminate the castle’s darkest corners. Learning new abilities can strengthen you in combat and unlock new areas.

Adapt to the challenge

The ignis adaptable difficulty system lets you move faster and deal more damage to enemies as you power up. Your adversaries scale alongside you, however, and become tougher to defeat.

Enter the paintings

Mysterious paintings lead to an unexplored surreal world. You can investigate the secrets within their canvases, where the surroundings shift as you explore.

Platforming and puzzles

Traps and enemies fill the castle’s challenging platforming sections. You also solve cryptic puzzles, including those found inside the paintings, as you make your way through the castle.
