As an Inkslinger at Brassknee’s renowned Wordshop, it’s your job to write letters for the citizens of Isle Shammer. But through the veil of work lies forgotten trauma. A voice begins to speak to you in recurring daydreams, telling you about your tragic past in Nomania.

## About This Game

Inkslinger is a 40-60 minutes, story-driven, Romancepunk tragedy with
typing-game mechanics and multiple endings.
## YOU NEED TO WRITE
You play as an inkslinger, which is both a profession and a race. Your job is
to help formulate the letters and speeches of your Isle Shammer clientele.
Else, you start to wither; your inkveins becoming stiff, your body rigid.

## SO YOU WRITE FOR YOUR CLIENTS
One after the other, the eccentric inhabitants of Isle Shammer visit your desk
at the Wordshop. You have to find the right approach to each paragraph of
their letters, depending on the clues they give you. At our desk, you’ll meet:
* Tetherheart, a mother whose son never gets back to her.
* Smoothie, a young cointaker for a fishmonger by the Waterbed. She needs a poem written for a boy she slapped for calling her a damp oyster.
* Humstrum, a beguiling musician.
* And several others, making your inkveins thrive or wither!

## BUT SOMEONE IS TRYING TO REACH YOU
Sometimes, however, these client encounters stir up vivid daydreams. You enter
a trance in which a mysterious boy tells you about your past. Piece by piece,
a timeline slowly forms, telling you about the tragic events that led you to
Isle Shammer.

But who is this boy to you? And what can he tell you about your past?

## WHAT’S THE CHALLENGE?
All types of players can play Inkslinger. To stimulate newcomers and
experienced players alike, Inkslinger doesn’t challenge you motorically but
cognitively. This game doesn’t care about how fast you are but how deeply you
connect with your clients through your semantic understanding.

## Mature Content Description
The developers describe the content like this:
INKSLINGER contains written descriptions of violence.

While there are no visual depictions of the acts, these gameplay segments are
written and designed to be evocative.
