Despite being literal beacons of light – the typical safe-space against the horrors that lurk in the dark – lighthouses are pretty scary affairs, what with their looming presence across a coastline, spiralling staircases and ladders, and, in the case of No One Lives Under the Lighthouse, the sudden disappearance of your predecessor.
Releasing today on Xbox, PlayStation and Switch, this version of the slow burn horror that is No One Lives Under the Lighthouse is an updated version of the 2020 PC release, that has a ‘Very Positive’ review base on Steam. You are the proud new keeper of the sole lighthouse on a barren rock, with only the sweeping winds and squawking seagulls to keep you company. The previous keeper of the ‘house disappeared in mysterious circumstances.
But remember – it’s just you here. No One Lives Under the Lighthouse…
Or so it seems. As you explore the lighthouse, you will have to discern what is real and what is a complete hallucination; you seem to be slowly slipping into madness, given the pure isolation of your job at hand. And all this makes for an incredibly tense atmosphere, surrounding the puzzles that you must solve to progress through the story.
