***** goblin's Workshop is a simple and easy item making simulation & RPG idle game. ***** Make weapons, recruit monsters to explore, get more materials and make more powerful weapons! Defeat the evil humans! [Introduction] In the game, you can make all kinds of items to sell to monsters to earn money, from time to time there will be a variety of monsters to visit your store. If you are very idle, you can also click them to pimp, from them to cut more money. When there are not enough materials, you must send your monster hired soldiers to explore the world to get more resources. If you have some money, please buy a better transport wagon for the monsters to ride. But the humans in this world is not a vegetarian, they occupy many territories. So your monsters if the equipped items are too bad to explore, it is easy to be beaten by human!
