Rumpelstiltskin's Home For Children is an area in the Distant Woods unlocked when you use a grimstone mask and choose to become a gnome.

This area is a mini-game in which you try to save as many children as possible from their horrible parents.

The mini-game lasts 30 turns, during which time your portal will allow you to visit 5 families. You have 6 turns to gather ingredients (clay, leather and straw) in the village while the portal charges up. Once you have acquired ingredients, you can go to your workshop to craft them into various objects.

Tinkering in the workshop lets you make things that help with general adventuring (potions, consumables, etc.), but these items do not help with the portal mini-game. You can also make advanced materials (glass, filling and parchment) which can greatly increase your mini-game score -- however you must practice creating these items first.

When the portal is charged, you may look through it to observe the family's behavior, and then walk into it to open negotiations with the parents. You may barter the things you've collected/crafted for children, if you can guess what the parents will accept.

At the end of the mini-game, your score (the number of children saved) makes you eligible for a leaderboard in the Museum. Your score also qualifies you for a reward:
