June 11, 2022 – Historically accurate-ish blacksmith simulator Anvil Saga receives a completely reforged demo ahead of its upcoming Early Access release. The brand new demo has been created just for the Guerrilla Collective 3 digital event – so strike while the iron is hot and play it on Steam now!
The demo consists of a revamped tutorial, a prologue level, and the first 11 days of the story campaign. You'll get to know the ruler of the province, the eccentric baron, and Jean-Jacques Jr., your rival who aspires to win the hand of the baron's fair daughter. Choose your side and help either the English or French armies, or betray both and work with bandits. Welcome a few unique customers, some of whom may seem strangely familiar and all of whom have bizarre requests for you.
The game will be released into Steam Early Access on June 21, 2022. The release will include a sandbox mode and the first chapter of the story campaign.
Set during the Hundred Years' War, Anvil Saga is a management sim with RPG elements where you take control of a blacksmith. Your goal is to turn a ramshackle store into a successful enterprise in a challenging world where all of your decisions impact the story and gameplay. You'll need to deal with all manner of customers, from French and English soldiers to local bandits, manage workers, improve your establishment and tools, decorate the smithy, and more.
