About

Mesmerizing tales of the sea
Strange characters
An atmosphere of unknowable horror
Multiple endings


In the aftermath of a global cataclysm, the harbor authorities reactivated an ancient lighthouse, hoping to keep the seas navigable amidst the growing chaos. A lone keeper is dispatched to the forsaken island, tasked with manning the beacon. The fate of passing vessels and the nearby town now rests in his hands. Far away, a wife and daughter wait for his return.


Each night, his duties grow more perilous. Mariners report encounters with creatures beyond the reach of science. Ships drift back from distant waters - empty, their crews vanished without a trace. In the island’s fishing village, the locals whisper prayers to sea gods and perform rituals to raise the dead.
Will the keeper preserve his sanity, protect those he loves, and guide the vessels entrusted to him through the abyss? Or will he, too, be lost to the dark tides gathering beneath the surface of the world?

Static Dread: The Lighthouse reviews and comments

I enjoy this style of game and we haven't really gotten any on consoles. I like all the Lovecraftian stuff and the general story even though it's not too in depth. Some of the mechanics aren't explained well. For instance, you can see your levels before the shift starts but not during for some reason. The bonuses don't seem to work sometimes either. Some of the choices were odd and misleading and I don't like some of the forced failure states. It's a little janky on console when it comes to moving stuff. My beautiful fish picture ended up clipped permanently behind the table during one of the falling events.
