My Desktop Dwarf: Taskbar Forge

YOU TYPE. HE FORGES.

Brokk lives just above your taskbar, where he runs a forge and works whenever you do. You write emails or code, and he forges items. Every key you press brings his hammer down. When you type quickly, the furnace glows white-hot and Brokk gives it his all. When you take a break, he catches his breath too.

A FORGE THAT KEEPS YOU GOING WITHOUT GETTING IN THE WAY

The game is designed to stay out of the way while you work. Typing fuels the forge, and Brokk keeps pace with you. Open the panel when you want to buy an upgrade or check on the shop, then get back to what you were doing. You can move the forge, resize it, tone down the effects or turn off the sound.

LEGENDS ARE FORGED FROM ORE

It starts with ore, then ingots hammered out one by one, and finally a finished piece: a dagger, a cauldron, a horseshoe or whatever the shop's customers have ordered. Sometimes the metal gleams and something legendary takes shape: Szczerbiec. Excalibur. Mjolnir. There are 49 item patterns across five rarity levels. You can browse your collection in the display cabinet.


From everyday tools to legendary mithril treasures.

HIS WIFE BRYGIDA RUNS THE SHOP

Brygida sells whatever comes off the anvil. Some customers buy what's
on the shelves. Others place special orders and pay extra. You decide
how freely the forge spends on ore for new items, from inexpensive
copper to the best metal you can afford.

THE FORGE PAYS FOR ITS OWN UPGRADES

The gold you earn goes back into the forge and shop. Buy Brokk a heavier hammer or better bellows, and Brygida a new sign to bring in more customers. A whetstone improves your chances of forging rarer pieces, while counter decorations raise prices in the shop. You can speed up forging, increase earnings or save up for the next metal. Just leave some gold for ore.

As your equipment improves, the little workshop changes with it. You can also give the forge a different look by choosing a workshop style.

FROM COPPER TO MITHRIL

Start with copper, then unlock bronze and iron. Keep building up your forge to work with steel, silver, gold and finally mithril. Each new metal gives you another reason to get back to the anvil, fill your collection and invest in your workshop.

TRY THE FREE DEMO

The demo lets you forge with copper, bronze and iron. If you choose, you can carry over your collection, forge and shop upgrades, and gathered resources when the full game is released.
