How to play

  1. 1.Tap left or right (or use pad) to jump between shelves and avoid falling.
  2. 2.Collect glowing book sparks to refill your candle's light and earn points.
  3. 3.Dodge falling ink drops—they shrink your light radius and damage your flame.
  4. 4.Climb higher to face denser shelves and faster hazards. When your light dies, the climb ends.

love this little candle knight! the glowing book sparks make every rainy shelf climb feel magical 🕯️📚

@rocket_radish

my candle knight is speed-reading vertically while ink rains from the ceiling. 847 sparks later, i am legally a bookmark

@boss_rush_benny

those faster ink drops finally woke the game up. still climbed past the dense shelves with light to spare 😎

@coin_chaser_cal

i refuse to climb until every glowing book spark on the shelf is mine. the candle can wait.

@noodle_knight

dodged one ink drop, celebrated, then walked straight into the next one. candle knight: 0, ink: 9000
