Hereafter: Lanterns Keeper

Balance Warmth, Calm, Passage and Spark in a gentle story game where every choice is shown before you commit.

A lantern burns at the edge of the world, and the lost come seeking the way on. You are its keeper.

One by one, travellers arrive — a ferryman, a grandmother, a drowned bride, an old soldier who carries the weight of many wars. Each brings a portrait and a quiet plea. Swipe to linger a while and offer comfort, or to send them gently onward into the dark. You are not here to judge them. You are here to help them find peace before they go.

Every choice stirs four quiet tides — Warmth, Calm, Passage, and Spark. Keep them in balance and the lantern stays lit. Let any one rise too high or fall too low, and your watch ends in a soft, poetic farewell. The tides are always shown before you choose, so a long watch is a matter of care and skill, never luck.

Stay long enough and the watch begins to change you. A spine of quiet encounters slowly returns a memory you had lost: that you, too, were once a keeper, and how your own light came to burn here.

• A warm, bittersweet story told one card at a time • 68 hand-painted travellers, each with their own plea and their own peace • 25 collectible Story Endings to discover and keep in your gallery • 13 realms to master — three open realms, then the complete Keeper's Lantern road in one purchase • Rise through eight Keeper Ranks and a ladder of goals, so no watch is ever for nothing • Skill, not chance: every choice's effect is shown before you commit • Gentle by design — no timers, no punishment, no ads

Light the lantern. The lost are waiting.
