Sconce

by havocy28

Plan a cave expedition around a shrinking torch budget. Each crossed zone spends light, while sconces create safe ground for your haul. This playable game is still in development and suits players who enjoy route planning and deciding when to turn back.

A starting approach

Start with Practice first and the Charted map. Compare the torch counter with Way home before taking a detour. In our practice cave, lighting a sconce cost six torch units. The first relic goes into a protected pocket; later finds use the riskier pack.

Our play check

Desktop check on 24 October 2026: explored the practice cave for over three minutes using directional controls, lit a sconce as the torch fell from 31 to 25, picked up oil and collected a gold chest. The chest entered the pocket and HAUL showed 6. We did not finish the expedition or test the campaign or mobile play.
