'''Til Morning's Light''' is a SurvivalHorror Action game by ''Creator/WayforwardTechnologies'' and Amazon Game Studios, released in 2015 for mobile devices.

The game stars Erica Page, a normal teenage girl who is just trying to fit in. One evening, she is trapped inside of a haunted mansion with a centuries-long curse. While inside, Erica hears a disembodied voice asking her why she is in the house, but refuses to let her leave. Armed with a flashlight, Erica must now navigate the mansion, solve its mystery, and of course, find a way to escape. All before the break of dawn, or else she herself becomes a ghost forever!

The game is an action adventure game. You control Erica as she investigates the spooky mansion, collects tools, solves puzzles, and battles enemies and other creepy monsters. Battles with monsters play out [=RPG=] style in a rhythm fashion as the player must tap or swipe the prompts in a timely matter (Ala Elite Beat Agents or Sonic Chronicles), with a successful attack each time, but missing a prompt results in the player being attacked. The game has an appropriately creepy atmosphere with a soundtrack provided by acclaimed Wayforward composer Jake Kaufman.
