A forgotten lighthouse awakens on an island where withering growth is spreading. As the lighthouse, you set out with a seabird companion on a journey toward a distant mountain through a strange, wordless world.
Explore the island, shine the lighthouse’s focused beam to affect parts of the environment, and send the bird to interact with objects and mechanisms. These abilities are used to solve environmental puzzles and clear obstacles along the way.
The journey introduces new ways to move and interact as it progresses. A mostly guided route, directed camera, and environmental storytelling shape the adventure, while optional collectibles provide additional discoveries.
In this helpfulness-selected sample, players often praise the painterly visuals, surreal environments, and immersive atmosphere, describing the journey as relaxing and imaginative. Some also enjoy how movement and interactions change over time, along with the story told without dialogue. Common reservations include puzzles that feel too simple or repetitive, limited camera control, and a short runtime; responses to the story and soundtrack vary.
From Lee Petty and Double Fine Productions, creators of Stacking, Headlander, RAD, and Psychonauts, Keeper is a beautiful and surreal third-person, atmospheric, puzzle adventure, and a story told without words.
On an island in a long-lost sea, a forgotten lighthouse stands dormant in the shadow of a distant mountain peak. As withering tendrils spread and coalesce, it awakens. Taken with a mysterious sense of purpose and joined by a spirited seabird, it embarks upon a heartening tale of unlikely companionship, an odyssey of mystifying metamorphosis, and an unexpected journey towards the center of the island, into realms beyond understanding.
