Kuri in Lull the Ghosts

Flood the screen with soft light orbs and lull every restless ghost—how much of the darkness can you erase before the level ends?

Kuri in Lull the Ghosts is a deceptively simple arcade game where your only job is to make light. Click or tap anywhere on the dark playfield and a glowing orb blooms outward, expanding until it fades. Each orb pushes back the murk, and when you've filled the required percentage of the screen, the level ends and the ghosts finally settle down. I'll admit the first few rounds feel almost too easy—then the screen starts bigger, the required coverage climbs, and you realize spamming orbs in random spots wastes your energy. You need to place them where they'll overlap and chain. There's a rhythm to it: tap, wait for the orb to reach full size, tap again in the gap. Miss a spot and the whole area stays restless. The visuals are soft and glowy, like a nightlight in a kid's room, but the ghosts aren't scary—they're more sleepy and annoyed. Each level ramps the coverage goal just enough to keep you clicking without feeling unfair. I kept coming back because it's the kind of game you can play for two minutes or twenty. It runs fine in a browser tab, no downloads, and the touch controls work surprisingly well on a phone if you're on mobile. The only real strategy is spatial: leave no dark pockets, and don't waste orbs too close together. If you're the type who liked filling in every square in old arcade bonus stages, this will scratch that itch.

Click or touch the screen to spawn light orbs to fill the screen. Fill enough of the screen to win!

• Aim for corners first—they're the easiest spots to leave dark when the coverage percentage ticks up. • Don't spam taps in one spot. Orbs take a moment to grow; wait for full size before adding another. • Watch the coverage meter. If you're at 90%+ and stuck, look for tiny dim patches near the edges. • On mobile, use quick taps rather than holding—each tap spawns a fresh orb. • Chain orbs so their edges just touch. Overlap too much wastes light and leaves other areas dark.
