Kindling

A cozy first-person frontier homestead game: restore a ruined cabin for the settler coming to live in it. Survey the damage, sweep and scrub it clean, mend the floor, roof and window, furnish it to her wishes, and light the first fire in the hearth before the first frost. Built on the Strata engine.
