About this game

Emberless is a dark, wordless puzzle-platformer.

A boy in a red scarf walks through a burnt forest, following two distant figures. There are no words, no tutorial and no dialogue — the world itself shows you what to do.

• Not a single word: anything you can push, pull or climb has a thin red edge
• Learn by trying: every mistake teaches, and a restart is never far away
• Puzzles grow from easy to hard, one new idea at a time
• Crates and rafts, ropes and pulleys, falling trees, presses, smoke, rising water and gusts of wind
• A black-and-white world where only the embers are red, with muffled, positional sound
• More than 15 chapters so far, with new ones on the way
• Fully offline: no ads, no account, no data collected

Controls: an on-screen stick on the left, jump and grab buttons on the right.

What’s new

Four new chapters, 18 to 21: the game now reaches the middle of the story. Runs smoother on slow phones. Many fixes from players' notes.
