A 3D platformer featuring unique low-light gameplay. Players control the candle and can move, jump and light up. As the candle burns, it reveals safe passage and drips wax but also reduces its height and lifespan. Players must navigate the dark and treacherous landscape and solve puzzles in order to reach the blue light at the end of each level.

Candleman is currently tracked with a Playable rating on EmuRank. Eden leads the current evidence so far, but the recommendation is still early.

EmuRank currently tracks 2 reports for this game. The sections below are useful for checking individual setups, but fresher reports would make the recommendation more stable.
