Go into "The Light"

"The Light" in this game is not the general noun, but the name of your final objective. To be more specific, The Light Keeps Us Safe takes the settings of a post-apocalypse world, where the world is now drowned in darkness.

Special gameplay features

The Light Keeps Us Safe is a horror-survival game, in which you'll see this grim world from the first-person perspective. This world is now taken over by the alien-machine creatures, and you'll have to stay out of their sight using your stealthy skills to locate and employ the power of "Light".

Lucky for you, most of those creatures are scared of light, so you can make use of locations with flickering light to avoid and defeat them. Fearing the dark in real-life is already a very terrifying experience, and this game will boost it to another level.
