The Cinderling

Blacksmithing in the valley

The Cinderling is a rhythm-based blacksmithing and shopkeeping game set in a Nordic folklore valley. You’re the only human there, working as a blacksmith while caught in a contract with a sentient flame. A crow guides you as you try to break the Cinderling curse and decide where your loyalty lies.

At the forge, you heat, shape and quench raw metals in musical mini-games. Your timing affects each item’s quality, value and power. You craft magical goods for mythical creatures, including Nixies and fiery Imps, and fulfill their requests.
