Lo Cunto de li Cunti

Lo Cunto de li Cunti is a 2D sandbox of mining, building, crafting, and combat, set in a world conjured from Giambattista Basile's Lo cunto de li cunti — the 17th-century Neapolitan "Tale of Tales" that gave us the first Cinderella, Rapunzel, and Sleeping Beauty. Dig into the earth, gather stone and ore, raise your own keep, plant a grove, and stand your ground when night falls and the monsters grow bold. The world is deterministic and hand-authored — every creature, relic, and biome is crafted, not random noise — so what you build is yours to keep. And the tales aren't just lore: the Pentamerone ships inside the game as a beautiful, flippable e-book you can read page by page. Meet a creature, a relic, or a wandering NPC and jump straight to the fable it sprang from. Fight enemies and solve quests to unlock the original story tale by tale. FEATURES • A baroque, folk-magical world inspired by Basile's fables — ogres, serpents, carnival rats, mandragoras, and enchanted relics. • Mine, build, craft, and fight across a vast procedural land you reshape directly — no menus between you and the world. • Sixteen playable heroes drawn from the tales, each with a unique boon. • Two growth tracks: combat experience and the wanderer's constitution, earned simply by exploring. • Read the Tale of Tales as an illustrated, flippable in-world book; unlock its stories as you meet the lore in the world. • Local Co-op over Wi-Fi — discover nearby players and share a world with no account and no server. • Plays fully offline. Single-player needs no connection at all. Survive the first night. Learn the world's rhymes and repetitions. Earn the title of Contastorie — story-teller — and unlock the complete Pentamerone.
