  • Daily Dungeons, the endless Abyss and seasonal events all year
  • 100+ heroes, pets and effects, almost all earned just by playing

How we make games

Fair, always

Everything that matters is earned by playing. What we sell is optional, paid once, and never a subscription.

Made with care

Handcrafted levels, original art and music, and a story worth finding. Small studio, no shortcuts.

We read everything

Every bug report and every note reaches a real person. Tell us what you think at hello@lanternlitgames.com.

About the studio

Lantern Lit Games is a one-person studio founded by Bobby Morrison, a dad with a lifelong love of dungeon crawlers. The name comes from a promise to keep a lantern lit so there's always a way back home.
