About the game:

An island once filled with light now lies swallowed by darkness. Strange ruins, forgotten paths, and dangerous creatures stand between you and restorating the light on the island. Tread Lightly is a survival-puzzle game focused on exploring, puzzle solving and survival. Use your lantern to survive, solve puzzles, and uncover new totems while avoiding the dangers hidden in the dark. 

You were out sailing with your boat, when you got caught in a dangerous storm. You got knocked unconscious, and when you woke up, you were stranded on the beach of an unusually dark island. Therefore, you grabbed a lantern from (what's left of) your ship, and went on exploration.
