An action adventure game in which we control sled dogs travelling in Alaska and trying to get home. The production was developed by an independent developer Timberline Studio.
Red Lantern is an action adventure game with elements of roguelike, which puts a lot of emphasis on narrative. In this production, the player controls a woman who wanders through the cold Alaska, trying to reach her home. During the journey we are accompanied by a team of dogs. During the game, players have to deal with a number of unique challenges and make various decisions, including hunting. Developers from Timberline Studio are responsible for creating this title. Red Lantern is their debut project, but they gained their experience working on the episodic adventure game King's Quest (as part of another company).

Game Ratings for The Red Lantern Video Game.
Cubed3: 7 / 10 by Steven Mattern
The Red Lantern has the certain indie game charm one may expect. Timberline Studio Inc. makes a decent first effort with a simple premise, good 'choose your own adventure' structure, and a cast of diverse dogs for your crew of five with a beautiful day and night cycle to top it off. Unfortunately, the title suffers from some dialogue and choice repetition and a few bugs or animations that could use some improvement.
God is a Geek: 5 / 10 by Nicola Ardron
The Red Lantern is a suvival-roguelite where you will have to face the harsh landscapes of Alaska with your dog sled team. You can pet the dogs, but most of the action feels very much down to the luck of the dice rather than any active participation from you.
Expansive:
The Red Lantern is a beautiful game, but it’s also a deeply affecting one. It has the power to warm your heart and crush it in equal measure, all while filling you with a sense of wonder as you explore its rich and stunningly realised world. This one has crept into my Top 10 games this year and for good reason. It’s incredibly special indeed.
