Building the Dream, One Frame at a Time.

Our Story: From the Backwoods to the Big Stage

We are LanternWard Games, a two-person team based in the heart of Northern Wisconsin. Born from a love of story telling in the deep woods by the shadows of a flickering fire light, our studio is dedicated to building worlds that feel like home—even when they're trying to kill you.

“We'll keep the lantern lit. You just keep exploring.”

First game on Steam
