About This Demo

A dark shadow hangs over Glintland. Heeding the call of your sister Kyra, you join the Nightstone Academy, craft magical creations, and place building tiles to weave production networks across the enchanting world of Glintland.

Fulfill the villagers’ requests and use your experience to unlock new, exciting building tiles.

What awaits you in the demo

In short, relaxing sessions, the Glintland demo offers a serene tile-laying experience in a simplified, whimsical world. Every free moment can be spent escaping the everyday and embracing a new fantasy challenge. Meet the villagers’ needs and gain experience to unlock fresh, captivating tiles and gameplay possibilities.

Tile Deck

Each game begins with a shuffled deck of tiles. Draw tiles into your hand, glance at your pending tasks, and find the perfect spot to place your first tile in the world. From the second tile onward, you must build adjacent to already placed tiles. If your hand is empty, draw back up to the hand limit and continue until your request is fulfilled and your settlement feels complete—or face trials and favors, playing on until the tiles run out.

Carefree Placement and Play

In Glintland, there’s no need to micromanage your placed tiles.

With a Harvester in hand, simply place it on a Drakewood, Myrium, or Redlon field to gather precious materials.

The Workshop lets you refine your gathered resources—the input determines the output.

Assemblers combine materials into new, enhanced items. Look forward to Tangerine Harps, magical staves, disruption fields, and many more powerful tools.

Even transport paths (conveyor belts) start directionless—only a connected building decides the flow. In Glintland, you never have to worry about aligning paths.

What’s missing in the demo

• Essence veins that connect to buildings, infusing items with magical energy.

• The full Shadow Story Mode, with all its twists and secrets.

• Many additional building tiles and challenges yet to be discovered and mastered.

• Tournament mode, where you and your friends compete under identical conditions to create the most valuable settlement.

Glintland is crafted by Kris F. Lipphart, a veteran game developer who has worked on titles like Gears Tactics, Transformers, Cluedo, Chef’s Arena, and World of Tanks. Now he brings his passion for board games, factory games, and short, relaxing play sessions to life. This game is dedicated to his two children, who play Glintland with joy. Thanks to intuitive controls, even a three-year-old can play Glintland using only a mouse.
