About this game

A cozy idle collector set in the Grove.

Place an egg in your nest, let it brood, and meet the Aetherkin inside. Feed it, watch it grow through its evolution line, and send it out on expeditions while you are away. Your Grove keeps gathering Food the whole time — so you come back to a full larder and a nest full of surprises.

WHAT YOU DO
• Hatch eggs of four rarities, each with its own little ceremony
• Raise your Kin through up to three forms and fill a Dex of 27 species
• Upgrade six Grove stations from hand-tapped to fully automated
• Pair a Kin with a matching station for an elemental production bonus
• Send teams on five expeditions and collect the loot when they return
• Advance the Elderkin ritual, the long-term goal of every Grove

BUILT TO BE PUT DOWN
No timer punishes you for leaving. Progress continues while the app is closed, and a welcome-back report tells you exactly what happened while you were gone. Play for a minute or for an hour — both work.

FAIR BY DESIGN
Everything in the game is reachable by playing. Aether Essence packs and rewarded ads are optional shortcuts, never a wall. There is no PvP, no energy bar, and nothing is locked behind a payment.

An idle spin-off of Aetherkin, sharing its artwork and its world.
Hatch eggs, raise adorable Aetherkin and grow a Grove that works for you.

What’s new

Wardens now boost their station's yield by 50%. Milestones land every 10 levels instead of 25, and eggs cost less. The Elderkin ritual stays reachable for good.

More hints for new players. Fixed: cards no longer close while you scroll.
