Be The Light
In a city swallowed by a sudden, unnatural blackout, you play as a lone electrician on a mission to bring the light back. But you aren't alone in the dark—shadowy entities lurk in the corners of the city, feeding on the remaining power. Accompanied by your faithful guide dog, you must navigate high-contrast 2D environments, solve complex electrical puzzles, and purge the darkness to restore hope to the citizens.
