A-1 · Entry · free in your browser
Pitch black.
One flashlight.
Every wall a hiding place.
A top-down stealth shooter set in a building with the lights off. Your torch is the only way to see the next room — and the surest way to be seen in it.
Solo against bots, or host a game and send friends the link. Keyboard and mouse, or a PS5 or Xbox controller.
B-2 · The light
Your torch is the whole game
Walls, furniture and shut doors all block the beam, worked out fresh every frame. What you can see is exactly what your torch reaches — and everyone else is working to the same rule.
- See
Your cone reveals the room and anyone standing in it.
- Be seen
Other beams show you where someone is looking, never who is holding the torch.
- Go dark
Kill your light and bots notice you at under half their usual range — but you are nearly blind.
C-3 · The round
Carry the light you cannot put down
- Find the coreIt is somewhere in the dark, and never in an occupied room.
- Carry it outHolding it forces your torch on and slows you, so whoever is winning is the one everybody can see.
- Extract three timesFirst to three takes the round.
D-4 · The kit
Four buildings, and the means to rearrange them
Breach and trap
C4 cuts a hole through an interior wall and joins two rooms for good. Mines deny a corridor. The outer shell never breaks.
Trip the breaker
Shoot the breaker and a whole wing lights for twenty seconds. Anyone with a sightline can see anyone in it, including you.
Teams or free-for-all
Two sides, balanced as people join, with friendly fire on and nothing earned for a teamkill. Or everyone for themselves.
Bots and friends
Practise against bots from Easy to Brutal, or host an online game: a four-character code and a link to share. The host picks the building.
Your controls
Pair a DualSense or Xbox pad for twin-stick aim and rumble, and rebind every key and button. Keys match physical position, so any layout works.

Do I need to install anything?
No. It runs in any modern desktop browser. You can install it as an app if you want it in its own window and offline.

What makes Kelega different from other top-down shooters?
The light. Your torch is the only way to see, and it is also what gives you away: other players see your beam before they see you, and switching it off leaves you nearly blind.
