How it feels

A calm, meditative crafting loop where you shape metal in your own forge at a gentle pace.

What players say

Players say the forging is fun at first but gets repetitive, and the game is shorter than advertised, with bugs and janky craftsmanship. Reviews split on value: some enjoy the cheap sale price, others call it a waste even on deep discount.
