In Into the Emberlands, you play as the Lightbearer, a beacon of hope for the lost Knacks who have lost their way in the wilds.

The game revolves around exploration and resource collection to rebuild and expand a village from a few shacks to a thriving safe haven. But remember, if your lantern's light fades while out exploring, you too will become lost, and the next Lightbearer will need to step into your shoes. The game promises an ever-sprawling world full of small adventures and big surprises, with endless replayability. Into the Emberlands evolved from Tiny Roar's former project Wanderful, adopting an open and iterative development approach.
