I'm planning a Halloween adventure, and I want to try doing

Well there's always candle light if you give up, but aside from some sort of very noisy to move token players have to put in a noisy bucket or some other sort of currency based system that was made with a lack of sight in mind I think you might be kind of SOL

Play 10 candles

That sounds pretty depressing though.

Like super seriously depressing.

Candles

Cellphone light

Dim light

Diceroller apps

Glow in the dark dice.

Stack of cards, in different shapes (Squares stars, and circles).

Every time you take an action, draw 2 cards from the top. Circle is bad, square is neutral, Star is good. Gives you a range of -2 to +2, with a soft curve.

Once you go through your stack, you shuffle it and start from the top.

Is there anything game-theme-appropriate to use as a light source? Like, if you're playing modern teenagers, I'd use a cell phone light.

Perhaps consider making the use of the light a plot point too. Using light (to roll the dice) draws the attention of Something. In theory, it should make each roll of the dice more filled with tension and compel players to roll less, keeping everyone in the dark for longer. (The idea obviously wouldn't work with some systems, which require rolls for so much as breathing.)

>Using light (to roll the dice) draws the attention of Something.

That's a cool idea, except-

>compel players to roll less

That's essentially the equivalent of saying "discourage players from doing things," which makes for a dull game.

You don't need random number generation, OP.

Play Dread, and use a Jenga tower!

It depends on the game on whether this will work. I'm thinking of it from the perspective of Dread, which works under similar principles.
