About Candlehead
Candlehead is a first-person horror game set in a surreal, candlelit world. You explore a village whose inhabitants have disappeared, investigate what happened and try to find your way home while something pursues you.
Explore and survive
The game has a huge, non-linear open world with stealth and survival elements. Your candle is barely visible in the dusky gloom as you explore.
Solve the mystery
You solve item-based puzzles in your surroundings to aid your escape. Environmental storytelling reveals lore about the village and its pursuer.
