You are a witch trapped in a nightmare born from your greatest sin.
Kindling is a top-down action roguelite where you must break magical seals to escape a haunted forest. Navigate through darkness, wield fire magic against shadows, and uncover the truth across multiple attempts. Every death makes you stronger.
Master Fire, Fear Darkness
Sprint through a forest where visibility is everything. Place campfires to push back the shadows and reveal what lurks within. But light is temporary, and what finds you in the dark won't hesitate to kill.
One Hit, One Death
There are no health bars here. Everything kills instantly. Your only protection is a magical shield that can save you once, then you're vulnerable until it recharges. Every encounter is life or death.
Rise From the Ashes
Collect ember fragments from fallen enemies. These pieces of power persist through death. Between runs, spend these fragments on permanent upgrades that fundamentally change how you play. Transform from prey to predator through careful choices.
Break the Curse
Journey deeper into your nightmare, breaking the seals that bind you here. Discover hidden memories that reveal the truth of what happened. Each run brings new revelations and harder challenges.
