About

Lume is the prequel of the award-winning game "Lumino City". The game is a puzzle-adventure with an unique art-style: The world in Lume is not made of polygons but completely with paper and cardboard material. Who turned out the lights? And more importantly... Who will fix them?

"Power to your grandad’s house has failed. What’s more, he’s nowhere to be seen. Immerse yourself in Lume’s photoreal world, solve perplexing paper puzzles to help restore the power, and uncover a deeper mystery behind the blackout." (lumegame.com)
