Kettlesong

Description

A recipe card sits next to an empty cup. It says what the tea should taste like: strength, bitterness, sweetness, aroma. It does not say how to make it. That part is yours to work out.

Kettlesong is a calm deduction puzzle told in tea. Turn the dials for leaf, dose, heat and steep time, watch the little bars show how your cup tastes, and press Pour when every bar sits inside the card's range. Fewer taps than the master's pace earn more stars. There are no timers and no lives, so you can taste, undo and think for as long as you like.

Twelve Tea Regions, 120 Cups

Every region adds a new idea. Hangzhou Hills starts with a single dial. Kyoto brings matcha, Darjeeling adds water, milk and spices, and London gives you a pantry budget and orders for several cups at once. In Marrakesh you blend two leaves. Alishan Mist hides some of the tastes until you try them. The Samovar Steppe teaches re-steeping, Ceylon turns to cold brew and iced tea, Yunnan sets a mystery cup from clues, and Hong Kong runs a whole service day. The last region is a run of master duels. Every cup has a recipe that a solver proved possible before release.

More Ways To Brew

The Daily Pot is a fresh puzzle every morning and keeps a streak. The Endless Tea House sends customers one after another and gets harder the longer you last. Free Brew is a sandbox with a tasting notebook, and the Tea Library fills in as you learn: twenty-one leaves, the waters, vessels and methods that suit them, each with a short note on how it behaves.

Your Tea House

Coins you earn by playing buy new leaves and vessels, upgrades and decor for the tea house. Prices are fixed and written on the shelf. There are no mystery boxes, and nothing in the shop costs real money.

Look And Sound

Porcelain and celadon: a white enamel kettle with cobalt bands on an ink-blue lacquer counter, a pale celadon wall, a red seal, and bright cobalt-and-white screens that stay easy to read. The tea house is modelled in real 3D with glaze, steam and soft light, music changes with the region, sound and motion can be turned down, and the game works offline with no sign-in.
