The heart of the world tree is going dark. You are Lumi, the last lightseed warden – and the only way is down.
CANDLERIFT is a vertical-descent action roguelite: you fall through glowing strata, and the faster you get, the more you shatter. One tap opens your parachute and slows you down – but it drains your Flow. Staying in the dive is rewarded. Going supersonic breaks everything… and risks everything.
★ ONE HAND, FOUR MOVES
Drag to steer. Tap once for the parachute. Swipe to dash and dive slam. No aiming, no shooting – just you, the deep, and your nerve.
★ A GUIDED START
A dedicated practice level teaches every move in seven steps before your first real descent begins.
★ FLOW, NOT COMBOS
Stay fast, graze past danger, and listen as the music swells with your Flow – layer by layer, all the way to the Light Trail.
★ BUILD YOUR FALL
30 modules across three schools, glyphs whose effects depend on their socket, and artifacts with real trade-offs. Every run plays differently.
★ WARDENS IN FREEFALL
Boss fights where both of you are falling – dodge fan volleys, flank shields, and strike at the right moment.
★ IN 20 LANGUAGES
Fully translated – from German to Japanese, from Portuguese to Thai.
★ PLAYED FAIR
No in-app purchases. No advertising ID, usage statistics only with your consent. No account. Everything is earned – nothing is bought. Between descents we occasionally show one of our own games. Everything plays without an internet connection too.
How deep can you go before your light fades?
