Yumeko has vanished without a trace.

While searching for her, the protagonist wanders into a world
that feels as though it has been swallowed by darkness.

Their only guide is the faint light of a single candle held in hand.

Each step into the dark triggers unexpected moments:
fragments of Yumeko’s diary,
and encounters with the entities that dwell in the shadows—
all of them rising to the surface as pieces of forgotten memory.

Kindling Hour is a short text adventure with a quiet horror tone.
It focuses on the unstable sensation of exploring with nothing but candlelight,
and on fragmented lines of text that connect like scattered shards.

• A space between sound and silence that gently draws you deeper into the story.

• Atmospheric horror that soaks in quietly, free of harsh shocks or gore.
  (No gore, no jump scares.)

• A brief playtime—just enough to light a small flame within yourself.

• A timeless theme of facing what was lost along the way into adulthood.
  (No unpleasant or “gross-out” elements.)

A tale of recollection… and quiet rebirth.
