Heart of the Forge

Young apprentice Oakling arrives to study under the renowned master Longbeard, only to find an empty workshop inside a giant Oak and a sleeping mentor. You will have to master the craft, fulfill orders, and restore the forge all on your own. Right beneath the workshop, untouched riches await among the tree's roots.
Explore the Mine
Every masterpiece starts with raw materials. Descend beneath the Oak, carve out your own paths, and mine iron, coal, wood, and rare minerals. Set up ladders and lanterns to navigate the mine, but keep an eye on your inventory space so you can carry all your haul back.
Handcrafted Quality
Crafting every item requires attention to detail. Manage furnace temperatures, smelt ore, forge metal, sharpen blades, and assemble finished products from multiple parts. Every order has its own production chain, and the quality of your work directly affects the final price.
Meet the Locals
The forge will quickly draw a colorful cast of clients, each with their own personality and story. A lumberjack needs a new axe, a knight needs help fixing his gear, and a local horse needs sturdy horseshoes. Every customer has secrets and their own reasons for visiting the shop.
Improve the Forge
Reinvest your earnings into new machinery, better tools, and upgraded equipment. Expanding the forge unlocks new recipes and advanced material processing. Better technology will help you push even deeper into the mine in search of rare resources.

Build a forge worthy of a true master, and may the roots of the Oak be with you!
