Games Like Cinderwake

Cinderwake is an action RPG in the old style: click to move, click to kill, pick up what the dead leave behind. The fire that warmed the kingdom now burns it. The Cinder Matron calls her ashlings in the cathedral, a buried king wakes under the glass dunes, and the drowned abbey rings its bell at night. Five heroes go where the ash falls thickest.

Five classes

Each class has three skill trees with more than 25 skills, and skills gain new effects at their milestones. A healer in each town gives the points back for gold, so a bad build is never the end of a hero.

Loot

Common, magic, rare, set and unique items with random affixes, sockets, gems and runes. The right runes in the right order inscribe an item. Rare uniques change the rules of a class. Charms work from your bag. Reforge and add sockets at the smith, share a stash between your heroes, and filter the loot you see. Item requirements matter: a heavy weapon in weak hands is dead weight. Buy, sell, gamble, hire a helper and gear up the helper too.

The Soot Fox

Every hero has a fox. It picks up loot, carries it, and runs to town to sell what you do not need. Feed it and it grows.

Three acts, random every time

Hollowmere and the ashen heaths. Dustreach and the tombs under the dunes. Greywater and the drowned abbey. Every map is generated new for every game. Waypoints, town portals and three world levels: Smolder, Blaze and Firestorm. Bosses warn before they strike: read the ground, step aside, hit back.

Secrets

Walls that break, hidden rooms and glades, treasure thieves that run with their gold, gleaming monsters, side quests, lore stones, and a secret level for those who find the bell.
