The Hollow

The Hollow is a first person horror game that opens on a black title screen and a single promise: six lanterns, one way out.

You move with WASD and look with the mouse. F turns on your flashlight, E lights a lantern once you find one, and Esc pauses. Shift lets you run, but the control list spells out the cost: it hears you.

The screen states the only rule you get before you enter. Light all six lanterns, then reach the gate. It is faster than you are. Do not run in the open.

Six lanterns stand between you and the exit. The dark between them is yours to cross. Playable in the browser.
