One Upon Light is a monochromatic styled top-down puzzle game with a photophobic protagonist. Trapped in a world of shifting shadows and light, players must manipulate objects in the environment to create a path of shadows to navigate through the levels.

Hardcore GamerKyle LeClairFeb 20163.5/5In spite of some of the fake difficulty it can throw at you, One Upon Light is fun, especially in unraveling some of the more trickier puzzles. The atmosphere and bits of story can easily help keep one hooked to it, so you may want to give this one a chance if you're up for a good puzzler. Just don't blame yourself if you pull the occasional hair out because your character has a lead foot.

PlayStation UniverseJohn-Paul JonesOct 20157/10An interesting if conceptually unambitious effort, One Upon Light is an easily accessible puzzler that provides a decent amount of challenge – it's just a shame that the game isn't longer with a better handled narrative.

Cubed3Lex FirthNov 20157/10One Upon Light is a great purchase for puzzle fans looking for something slightly different. It's an excellent first release from a previously unheard of developer, and could even be enough for Singapore to emerge as a new major contributor to the industry. It's fantastic that Rising Star Games has brought One Upon Light westward a year after its original release, and it should hopefully pave the way for new original experiences to be release here in the future.
