About this game
Flicker of Hope is a suspense thriller where you play as a small candle in the ruins of a dark cathedral. Though the halls are littered with victims of a mysterious plague, you are not the only soul left. Use the properties of a candle, and a trusty douter to prevent yourself from being discovered.
Join Jean Wick in his quest to restore hope to a dying world by carrying on a dead monk’s mission to fill the cathedral with light. Use Jean’s douter and a mix of waxy tricks to avoid being detected by Mara, a nun who succumbed to despair as she tried to heal the overwhelming tides of plague victims, and the Legiones, giant insects who feast on the dead. Travel deep into the darkness to bring the world back to the light, or die trying.
