Forge Clicker
Read full descriptionHide full description
Your forge starts with one anvil and one pair of hands: yours. TAP TO EARN Tap the anvil for gold. Spend it on upgrades: hire apprentices, stoke hotter coals, and turn a village smithy into a gold machine. IDLE INCOME Apprentices keep earning gold while the game is closed. Minions you have bound keep fighting the dungeon, so you come back to XP as well. DELVE THE DUNGEON Clear the cellar under your forge and fight down through slimes, rats and slag golems, every floor on a timer. A boss waits on every fifth, and from floor 10 down it heals to full if you run out of time. Floors ending in 7 run under a weekly Aspect: one element hits hard, everything else is resisted. CRAFT YOUR ARSENAL Bosses drop ore and embers. Forge them into weapons and gear, equip them, and hit harder than a plain hammer ever will. Infuse a blade with an element, and reforge it on the Grand Anvil when the fight needs a different edge. BIND A PARTY Bind minions to fight beside you. Level them, upgrade them, then splice two maxed minions into one of 15 hybrids that outgrows both parents. CLIMB THE TOWER When raw damage stops working, climb the Tower instead. Each floor demands one element and gives you twenty seconds, so how high you reach depends on your elemental range, not your attack number. Your best height banks permanent attack power. ASCEND AND BEGIN AGAIN Trade a run for permanent power: prestige points, a shop that carries across runs, heirlooms you bind for lasting bonuses, and the Crucible, which burns leftover ore and embers into Deepsteel. QUESTS TO GUIDE THE WAY A quest chain leads you from your first taps to the Rat King's hoard, with daily bounties, challenge floors and a raid along the way. FAIR BY DESIGN - No forced ads.

Descend sixty floors into a dungeon that burns like an ember. Combat is yours to steer: aim, dodge, dash, and swap heroes at the right moment. TAG-SWAP: ONE BUTTON, SEVEN HEROES Knight, archer, mage, rogue and priest fight side by side, joined by two exclusive champions. One tap takes control; the swap grants a moment of invulnerability and pulls every enemy onto your new leader. Each hero carries their own health pool, so one falling does not end the run. DEEP LOOT, NOT A DEEP MENU 150 item families across five tiers, with affixes, sockets and gems. Same-tier pieces fuse regardless of slot. Upgrade, melt and socket at the forge. The screen tells you whether a drop beats what you wear, so you never do the math yourself. A DIFFERENT DUNGEON EVERY RUN Hand-built room templates arranged procedurally: familiar, never memorized. Ten biomes, each with its own enemies and hazards. Twenty bosses and twenty mini-bosses, each with a telegraph and a weakness. PROGRESS THAT STAYS Gold you bank survives death. Buy permanent ranks on the upgrade tree, unlock new heroes, and continue from your deepest checkpoint. Die and you resume one floor back, not from the start. AN HONEST GAME No gacha. No energy timers. No pay-to-win. Buying moves you faster, nothing more. Watching an ad is always your choice. Playable in English, Turkish, German, Spanish and Portuguese.
