About

Lighthouse: The Dark Being uses graphics created in and pre-rendered with 3D Studio. It has a first person POV. It uses RBT for animations and VMD for cutscene videos. The style is not unlike that of the Myst games, though not as static. The game was distributed on two CD-ROM discs. Game design places a strong emphasis on puzzle solving.
