About RedLantern | 赤提灯

Set in 90s Japan, deep in a snowbound village, you work for RedLantern, the country’s largest illegal deep-web marketplace. Guns, drugs, disappearances, forbidden tech, everything moves through its encrypted threads. But the RedLantern has more than crime, a curse. Some posts don’t stay on the screen, and two relentless hunters will do anything to keep you from finishing your shift.Your boss demands results. Trace illegal shipments. Track down users. File reports. Survive until 6:00 AM (one hour in real time). The game is run-based, with permadeath and no checkpoints. Every failure sends you back to the start of the shift. Every run pushes you deeper into the network’s secrets.RedLantern is vast:
  • 400+ immersive marketplace listings with images
  • Hundreds of user profiles, each with a distinct tone and history
Your very first playthrough begins with a 10–15 minute prologue, setting the stage for the nightmare ahead. And for those who want more, Hardcore Mode adds another handler to report to, plus 50+ additional unique RedLantern users (not found in the normal difficulty and exclusively unique to hardcore) with new posts.Coins are your lifeline. Earn them by completing reports, digging into users, or taking your chances gambling on RedLantern itself. Spend them on illicit software or arrange risky alley pickups for hardware. Every upgrade carries a price and a risk.Lock the windows. Kill the lights before you hide. Check the camera. Not every post you read is just a story.

I was one of the playtesters of the game and I can say that this game is a masterpiece, it exceeded all of my expectations and being 10 hours deep in it, I still haven't beaten it. The game takes around 4-5 hours to beat,but to see everything it has to offer and every feature takes way more than that. In the beginning it takes time to figure out all the things you have to do and the sequence of them,but after you pick up on what to do and how to do it, its a lot of fun. I would highly recommend to try it. Even after 10 hours deep its still a lot of fun to play it, Cant wait for hardcore difficulty. A good alternative of welcome to the game and dead signal series.

This game's survival loop is brutal and run-based, where every decision matters. The atmosphere is incredibly chilling, and it constantly gives you this intense feeling that you're not alone. You can feel the passion the developers put into it, and the amount of content is just crazy.

The game itself is good and well made, but besides a basic guide theres not much info. I'm 6h in and I haven't progressed beyond the first shift no matter what I do. I tried getting in touch with the dev but no replies yet, if someone figures this out please let me know lmao.

In the beginning it was a bit difficulty to understand what I was supposed to do,but after I got the hang out of it the game was lots of fun, if you read the tutorial and watch the videos you should be good to go after 2 to 3 runs. (Liked the idea of having a couple of hidden sites that if you figure out, it rewards you.
