About the game
A pitch-dark manor you can only see through camera flashes. Each flash lights the room for an instant, and the photo stays on screen as you walk. But things keep moving in the dark, so every picture goes out of date the moment you take it. Find the keys and climb the stairs.
How to play
- Take a flash photo to see the room.
- Walk using the fading picture as your map.
- Flash to stun nearby Dust Wraiths, but every flash tells the others where you are.
- Collect the keys and find the stairs to the next floor.
Good for
Memory and a little bravery, wrapped up in a silly game you can finish in a few minutes.
Questions grown-ups ask
Do I need to download anything?
No. Every game runs right in your web browser. Open the page and play.
Are there ads?
No. There are no ads anywhere in the arcade, so kids can play without pop-ups or anything to click away.
Does it work on phones and tablets?
Yes. Every game is built for touch screens first, in portrait and landscape, and also works with a mouse and keyboard on a computer.
Is it OK for kids?
Yes. The games are made for kids and the grown-ups who play with them. Spooky games stay cute: ghosts giggle and say boo, nothing gory or mean.
Do we need an account?
Yes, a NerdHomies account lets you play every game and keeps your stars and progress. It only takes a few seconds to make one.
How much does it cost?
The arcade is in early access, and right now every game is included with your account. We will always tell members before anything changes.
Can we play together?
Most games have a two-player pass-the-phone mode, and a few are head-to-head or party games for up to six.
