About the Game

Embark on this journey with only two goals: forge mighty equipment and uncover the truth behind a bizarre fire.

You are a skilled blacksmith and a scavenger who hunts for legends among the ruins. With your own hands you will gather resources, forge gear, and venture across perilous uncharted lands in pursuit of a secret someone tried to bury.

You will experience

🔨 Forging & Scavenging

This is no simple buy-and-sell game. You must personally delve into forests, mines, snowy mountains, and caves — defeat monsters with your blade and scavenge the bones, pelts, ores, and magical relics they drop. Bring these "trophies" back to your smithy, melt them down, and forge them yourself to create unique legendary weapons and armor. You can also install special offensive magic slots into your weapons.

⚡ A Rich Array of Skills

You're not just swinging a sword. From blade arrays that tear the air, lightning strikes descending from the sky, to homing magic missiles that chase enemies, and frost bursts that freeze everything — a wide variety of combat skills are yours to combine. Every strike can trigger a chain reaction: the afterimage slash from your basic attack is still lingering when the seeking orbs summoned by your ranged strike have already caught up with fleeing foes.

⚔️ Highly Flexible Character Building

By socketing gems, modifying weapon slots, and equipping rare relics, you can tailor your very own combat style. Become an impervious heavily armored warrior? Or a spellblade who calls down lightning? The choice is entirely yours.
