Early Access to Blacksmith Master is now available for Windows, macOS, and Linux via the Epic Games Store, GOG.com,* and Steam, allowing players to wrap their (presumably brawny) arms around a simulation of this old-world profession. Developer Untitled Studio and publisher Hooded Horse offer this Launch Trailer with a look, and a 25% launch discount that's good for the next two weeks. Here's more on this chance to forge your unique identity by adopting the most common surname in the English-speaking world:

Blacksmith Master puts you in charge of your own medieval forge and has you manage resource acquisition and refinement alongside the production and sale of finished goods.
