''Lumen'' was the first game developed by Thousand Cranes Studio, formed by six students of Pompeu Fabra University in Barcelona. It is a dark fantasy ActionAdventure which takes place in a DreamLand where all that protects the PlayerCharacter is a MagicalCamera. Its flashes show the truth or create new realities, while the photos can be used to manipulate the environment. It was completed and made available for free on [[http://www.lumengame.com/ its own site]] and various IndieGame hub websites in 2013.

* UndignifiedDeath: The warden gets this. He's too big to take on directly, but he's conveniently keeping guard next to a giant teddybear. What do you do? Take a photo of the teddy bear's head, shake the picture to loosen it from the body, and then tilt the picture to drop it on the warden.

Late at night, a young girl, Lumen, wakes up from her bed at the urging of a disembodied voice. Though it is her bed she steps out of, it is not her room she finds herself in, but rather lone building with outgrowth floating in the sky. Nearby, Lumen finds a camera, which the voice urges her to pick up as it is impossible to proceed without. As Lumen slowly but surely makes her way across, the voice guides her steadily if cryptically, its most worrying words concerning how Lumen has done this all before... and failed.

* MagicalCamera: Lumen's camera has two functions. By means of its flashes, the environment can temporarily changed. Certain platforms, for instance, are only tangible after a flash. The paintings in the library are also sensitive to flashes, showing a hidden self for just a moment. The other function are the photos themselves, which can be shaken or tilted to make the same forces play on the object the photo was taken of.

!!''Lumen'' provides examples of:
* CreepyChangingPainting: There are three in the library, of a clown, a doctor, and a teddy bear. They are normal enough, creepy only insofar as that they're pretty closeup and of things that are prone to invoke a phobia, but get a flash on there and the paintings change to straight-up MonsterClown, MadDoctor, and KillerTeddyBear.
