Introduction
Lantern Stack is a timing arcade game built from the original festival lantern artwork in the Scaldfish source folder. A lantern swings between wide and narrow sizes, and your goal is to drop it only when it can fit on the lantern below.
How to Play
- Watch the floating lantern shrink and grow.
- Drop it when its width is no larger than the previous lantern.
- Every clean drop adds one point and raises the tower.
- Keep the rhythm as the safe size gets smaller.
Controls
- Mouse or touch: tap the play area or the Drop Lantern button.
- Keyboard: press Space or Enter to drop.
- Restart: start a fresh tower after a missed drop.
- Optional reward: use one continue after a miss when reward ads are available.
FAQ
What is the objective?
Build the tallest possible lantern tower by landing each lantern smaller than the layer below it.
Why did my run end?
The dropped lantern was wider than the previous layer. Wait until the lantern shrinks before dropping.
Does the continue change the score?
No. A rewarded continue keeps your score and gives you one smaller lantern to resume the run.
