A spoiler-light walkthrough of Lantern Hollow

Lantern Hollow is best played slowly, but a few players get stuck early and give up. The main thing: examine everything twice. Objects change after you've read certain notes, and the game quietly assumes you'll revisit.

There's no fail state, so don't stress puzzles. If one stumps you, wander off and come back. The solution is almost always something you already saw and dismissed.

I won't spoil the ending, but I will say this — read the notes in order when you can. The story lands so much harder when the pieces arrive in sequence. Headphones on, lights low, take your time.
