Glimmerhop gameplay: teal Glim hopping across and illuminating the tile board

Actual gameplay · Launching 3 November 2026

Every hop lights the way.

Built around one bright idea.

Steer each automatic hop, light the required tiles, and charge Radiance to absorb strange creatures.

  1. Hop.

    Glim keeps the rhythm. You choose the route.

  2. Light.

    Every landing brings another tile to life.

  3. Absorb.

    Build Radiance. Turn a creature's power into your own.

Eight lands.
One illuminated trail.

120 handcrafted levels, from forest shade to a snowbound summit, down to the sea and into the dark beneath it. Take a look inside the game.
