In ForgeTax, each hammer blow increases your sword's value, but a single mistake can shatter it. This dark, first-person roguelite combines weapon forging, risky decisions, and strategic upgrades. Your mission is to forge valuable swords, manage your resources, and pay tribute to the dragon that rules your forge.
Test Your Luck
Start by heating a sword's blade and placing it on an anvil. Each successful hammer blow increases its value, but there's always the risk of breakage. Forge the same sword ten times to activate Frenzy Mode. This gives you a brief window to strike repeatedly without worrying about the blade.
Transform Swords into Powerful Synergies
Use the Relic Engine to transform swords and gain upgrades and special effects. Each sword you sacrifice means one less blade to pay tribute to the dragon, so every decision matters. Relics can modify your draw card, combine different abilities, and create powerful synergies. Adapt your strategy to the upgrades you've earned and seize every opportunity.
The dragon awaits
When your swords are ready, place them on the counter and ring the bell to pay your tribute. If you meet the dragon's demands, you can continue forging and play another round. But a sacrifice that's too small can have dire consequences. Think carefully about which swords to keep, which to sacrifice, and when you're ready to stop taking risks.
Pay tribute. Master your blacksmithing skills. Prepare your revenge.
