Description

A free browser game about a village blacksmith. Every morning your mines hand you blanks, and customers want a horseshoe, a sword, a crown. Drag blanks onto orders and remelt the ones that don't fit — but every remelt heats the forge, and at full heat the next order burns. A run is a year: four seasons of five days, each with its own forge weather and a guild order to deliver. No install, no account, plays on a phone. English and Russian.
