Our story takes place in a tribal world where we will take control of Teku, and the village to which we belong will be attacked by an enemy tribe that will not be content with destroying everything in its path, will also kidnap our friends, this is where the adventure begins the mission will be to rescue our countrymen and at the same time discover who is behind these kidnappings and above all what their dark intentions are.
What may seem a relatively predictable story surprises us with a very well-defined development since throughout our adventure we will encounter tremendously picturesque situations and characters that will create that differential touch that makes Candle a game with its own identity.
Perhaps the best thing that can be said is that it is a universe that feels alive and that you want to know more about. Not only are all the elements treated with extraordinary care, but both its symbolism and its very conception are based on very specific foundations that help to transmit a kind of ancestral coherence in which one feels completely immersed.

Candle's gameplay focuses on exploration, solving puzzles, and avoiding enemies and environmental hazards, but the controls are a bit stiff and feel laggy, luckily these mechanics that require speed are not very common. Players must utilize special skills and items to overcome challenges, we can also interact with the game's environment in meaningful ways, which adds an extra dimension to the game and makes it more exciting and challenging.

Overall Candle is a beautifully hand drawn world with an interesting adventure full of puzzles and traps, it is a bit stiff and has a laggy feel when controlling Teku but once you get comfortable with it it's no big deal, this isn't a game that requires a lot of speed or precision but rather to enjoy its setting and story.
