| Name | Type | Description | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| The Lamp | Core interaction | The lighthouse's beam is the primary way the player touches the world. | Available from the opening chapter |
| Focus Beam | Core interaction | Narrowing the lamp into a focused beam is a distinct action from the wide shine, and it is where most of the puzzle solving actually happens. | Taught in the opening chapters; used throughout |
| Dash | Movement | A short burst of speed on the controller's A or Cross button. | Default movement ability |
| Twig Commands | Companion ability | Twig the seabird can be sent out to specific points the lighthouse cannot physically reach, which makes the bird a second set of eyes and a remote trigger. | Introduced early in the game |
| Boat Traversal and Water States | Traversal system | Later chapters hand the lighthouse a boat and split the water into clean and corrupted states. | Unlocked in the water chapters of the second half |
| Stone Statue Collectibles | Collectible system | Twelve statues are hidden across the island, each slightly off the main route, and simply approaching one registers it. | Spread across all chapters |
| Chapter Select | Progression system | Every finished chapter can be replayed from the menu, so a missed statue never forces a full second run. | Unlocked as chapters are completed |
| Wordless Storytelling | Narrative system | There is no dialogue, no narration and no readable text carrying the plot. | Applies to the entire game |
| Achievement and Trophy Structure | Completion system | Thirteen achievements in total: twelve statue collectibles and one story achievement for finishing the game. | Platform achievement and trophy lists |
