Game Info
In Light Bearers, one player assumes the role of the Shadow, tasked with infecting the other players, known as Light Bears. Once a Light Bear is infected, they transform into Shadow Bears and join the Shadow's pursuit. The Light Bears' objective is to reach the 'Light Pool' at the end of the round to secure their victory. However, if the Shadow and their growing horde of Shadow Bears manage to infect all Light Bears before the timer expires, the Shadow claims victory. The game supports single-player modes and family sharing, and is available in English.
