21 itemsAbout the Game
Sword & Shield Simulator drops you into a medieval world where your hammer does the talking. Run your own forge, master every station of the smithy, and craft work that earns its price.
Master the forge
Real blacksmithing, station by station. Load the furnace and smelt your ore, then hammer glowing steel into shape at the anvil. Take the blade to the grinding wheel for a proper edge, and pick up the chisel for the fine detail work. Every station matters, and every step you rush shows in the final piece.
Design your masterpiece
The sword designer is where your work becomes yours. Mix and match blades, guards, handles and pommels into your own creations, from simple soldier's steel to showpieces worth a noble's purse. Build shields piece by piece, from the boards to the boss, and keep the small furnace busy with the ironwork the world runs on: horseshoes, scythes, tools and other everyday goods. Quality is everything: a masterwork blade opens doors a cheap one never will.
Earn your coin
A forge is a business. Take contracts from the blacksmith's customers, deliver the quality they paid for, and trade your goods with merchants around the city. Source your own materials to keep the fires burning: mine rock for ore, hunt game, chop trees, and haul everything back in your cart. The better the smith, the better the coin, and your skills grow with every swing of the hammer.
A world beyond the anvil
When you step out of the smithy, a medieval world is waiting: story missions across three regions, side quests, collectibles, lockpicking for the curious (and a prison for the careless), fast travel shrines, and a round of the cups game on the main road. But the forge is where your legend is made.
