Hundred Candles
  • A new scroll: the old Japanese night game of a hundred ghost stories, one candle blown out after every story

  • For Halloween it stands right at the temple gate, open from your very first minute - after the festival it moves to the autumn row and stays in the game

  • Candlelight - ten candles light an old temple hall; yokai falter in their light and grow bold in the dark, and a circle around a dark candle lights it again

  • Fukikeshi-baba - the old woman who hates the light shuffles from candle to candle and blows them out

  • Hitodama - pale soul flames; seal one beside a dark candle and it lights the wick again

  • Aoandon, the blue lantern - the spirit who appears when the last story is told; in the dark she cannot be touched, so light the candles around her and seal her in the glow

Also
  • A new memory of the painter Bokusai: The Hundred Stories

  • A new piece of music, A Hundred Stories, and carved pumpkin lanterns while the festival lasts (until 9 November)

  • 3 new bestiary entries and a new achievement: The Last Story

  • All new texts in all nine languages
