About the Game

Step into the enchanting world of Into the Emberlands, a cozy exploration game with a rogue-lite twist that is all about rebuilding the home of the charming Knacks in a world threatened by a mysterious glooming Miasma.

As the chosen Lightbearer, you are equipped with a lantern fueled by light-bringing ember, allowing you to venture out into the Miasma.
Bring back the lost Knacks and collect resources to rebuild and expand your village!

But be aware, if the ember lantern fades you’ll become lost in Miasma yourself until the next bearer of light finds you…
