How it feels

A quiet, repetitive crafting loop where you calmly strike the anvil, sell swords, and slowly grow your reputation under the watchful eye of a Cat God.

What players say

Players forge and sell swords in a simple loop that hooks them for hours, though many warn about the lack of autosave. It takes about five hours to reach the ending, but the late game turns grindy if you skip the collection log. The spreadsheet skin and keyboard-only controls are a hit for playing at work.
