About
Turn a ramshackle blacksmith shop into a successful enterprise in a challenging and endlessly varied world! Deal with local bandits, merchants, priests, as well as French and English soldiers. Manage workers with various quirks, improve facilities and tools to create better merchandise, decorate your smithy to attract high-paying customers and most importantly – try not to get yourself beheaded!
Construct new rooms and underground facilities in order to expand your smithy and take on the more challenging orders. From a simple kitchen to living quarters, to logging or woodcarving workshops – each room needs to be outfitted with the appropriate furniture and décor.
Customers, relationships and decisions – they all matter! Maintain your reputation with conflicting factions, each one offering protection and bonuses for your budding enterprise. The orders which you decide to fulfil and the way you deal with each faction influences the game world and leads to a variety of tragic, fun or bewildering outcomes.
Manage orders and try to increase your prestige level to attract the rich and the famous. Look out for unique orders that pay a premium, such as a baron’s request to create the most beautiful ring for his daughter or a wandering knight demanding you forge a one-of-a-kind sword.
Take charge of employees with different skill sets, salary levels, needs and personalities. Keep them happy by building special facilities, installing amenities and decorating their rooms. Equip your workers with special tools for faster work and help improve their craft by adding new books to your library.

DO NOT BUY! This game had promise. The Devs have ignored the PC version for over 2 years (depsite what they say it is not comp;ete and still full of game braking bugs. This was a title and developer that had a lot of promise. NEVER BUY THIS GAME OR ANY GAME BY THIS DEV! Waste of money and over 40 hours I can not get back.
Весьма неплохая игрушка. Жаль, что несколько весьма очевидных и неприятных багов так и не пофиксили за столько лет... Pretty good tiny game. Though few very obvious and annoying bugs still not fixed in years...
gamebreaking bugs still not fixed after many years
Now the game has been released in 1.0, decided to give it a try - not worth your time. The priority system isnt properly implemented so even when you mark the quest orders as low, they are still prioritised - This menas you have no way to make money or speed up progress except for slogging through orders that provide no money, with high amounts of work needed in the early game! I lost 10 orders because of this after an hour thinking I might be the issue. Do not buy until the devs have fixed it.
I found out about this game on event that had demo. I played it and liked. Once it was released I played it and had a very nasty bug that stopped my progression. I decided to give devs some time to fix it. After 3 years I came back to play it. Game is playable but still not comfortable due to bugs. You would believe that by this time obvious bugs be fixed? No they are not and it seems that devs abandoned this game. Bug of priority of completing orders that dont change and you just fail to do it in time because of that. This is infuriating and also unbelievable how recurring and how often it happens. I like idea and game atmosphere. But because of the bugs I want to drop it. Game has a system of choices that influence the plot. And because of bugs I cant achieve completion of my choices. Timed missions fail and my choice is meaningless. If you are ready to endure it then you can try this game, just because of the idea. I hope if not devs, some kinds of kind people fix the bugs :'(
It's too frustrating. First you only a couple quests sparingly, and that's pretty chill, then suddenly you get four or five quests at once and you can't do them all and someone is going to be angry and even the sandbox mode is too stressful. The timers need to be longer for the easier modes. That's a huge stress factor. No matter how fast my guy works, I can't get to orders in a timely manner. I try to do the quests, but they make it impossible because they don't wait with quests involving things you haven't unlocked. Money is a big issue. I lost out on parts of the story because money making is so hard and each upgrade of doors or floors or roof cost a stupid amount of money, and you HAVE to buy the stupid roofs and doors and crap because you can't upgrade the workshop unless you do. Another thing, trying to keep a balance of the factions is almost impossible. Someone is always mad at you and the punishments for a faction being angry is brutal. When you only get one point per order to increase their like for you, but can lose 10 points if they see you serve someone from an opposite faction is stupid. Then the quests half the time raise someone's score and lowers someone else. I played on easy mode and sand box mode, so I can't imagine how much worse it is playing regular. I've gotten a headache and this game has made 'relaxing game time' a nightmare. I really wish I hadn't wasted so much time on this game, but I kept hoping I would master the mechanics, but I just feel like these half baked aspects are killing the whole experience.
The game is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ boring, buggy and no more updates
This game was pretty fun. But about a year ago, a glitch was introduced after an update that results in quest timers counting down way too fast, functionally making it impossible to achieve them. It's been forever, and they still haven't fixed it. Seems live development has stalled. IDK.
人物不能改名不能排序,完全不知道谁是干什么 吃饭休息完不回去工作,我寻思也没人占工作位置 每个人的状态还得一个个点过去看,你接了一堆订单结果发现他在睡觉
Песочница, сюжета никакого нет, очень много ненужного текста и вся игра - это ковать, ковать и еще раз ковать. Жать на одну и ту же кнопку несколько часов, ппц веселье. Жалею, что купил ее, ей цена 100р не больше.
