Publisher: Merge Games
Genres: Puzzle, Adventure
But Teku has a special gift: his left hand is a candle. Let it be a bright beacon to drive off your enemies or to shed light on dark places.
Gorgeous hand-painted watercolor visuals give Candle that special flair, as all backgrounds and characters have been carefully drawn and then scanned, picture after picture. The game consistently feels like a living painting.

A beautifully drawn adventure told by an extremely talented voice actor that suffers a little from its own style.
ZTGD
Candle: The Power of the Flame is a beautiful game with a charming and emotionally resonant story.

Candle: The Power of the Flame took a while to come to consoles but it was definitely worth the wait.
Nintendo Life
Switch owners that are longing for a slower, more methodical approach to 2D puzzle platforming will want to give Candle: The Power Of The Flame a spin - even more so if they're seeking a tough challenge that's stacked to the rafters with whimsical charm and a striking art style. The title may well be home to some clunky controls and ferocious difficulty spikes from the moment you take control of Teku, but the immense sense of achievement married with what feels more like a piece of art than a video more than makes up for its shortfalls.
