Light

LIGHT begins with the player's character waking in a room with no memory of who he is. Through notes found in the environment, he soon realizes he's been the subject of a corporate experiment that has left him with a ruined memory. Escaping the room, he works to discover what's been done to him and to bring down the corporation behind it. Each level is presented top-down, almost like looking at a blueprint. Walls and furniture are depicted via glowing white-line drawings, creating a futuristic vibe. The characters appear as simple squares with dots in the middle. Each character type has its own color: Guards are red, your hero is bright blue. The player's goal is to make it to each level's exit, avoiding guards, collecting files, unlocking doors, and switching off security cameras along the way. Run into a guard, whose vision is represented as a cone of light stretching before him, and you can try to escape, ducking around corners and going through doors to lose him. You also can choose to kill him, but this will start a level timer counting down to the arrival of reinforcements, lowering your score and potentially making the level a lot more difficult to complete.
