Description

Lostlight is a horror game inspired by the legends of the Appalachian Trail and skinwalkers. As a lone hiker, players encounter eerie sounds, evidence of past hikers gone missing, and a malevolent, otherworldly presence stalking the woods.

In Lostlight, players step into the shoes of an unsuspecting hiker on a routine trek through the Appalachian wilderness, until the first night of camping brings distant, unsettling sounds. As the journey unfolds, the trail grows increasingly twisted: abandoned camps, found footage hinting at past horrors, and looping sequences that blur reality. The player soon encounters the malevolent force stalking the woods, forcing tense decisions and close encounters with the unknown. Survival is not guaranteed, and choices determine whether the hiker escapes or becomes yet another lost soul in the forest.
