Ultimate Blacksmith Tycoon

Ultimate Blacksmith Tycoon is a shop-management game in which you run a small-town forge and use your Appraisal skill to assess materials, gear Modifiers and customers’ purses. You do not fight yourself: you hire and equip adventurers, send them into dungeons, then use what they bring back to craft gear and run your shop’s economy.

Appraise and craft

Materials and Modifiers determine a quality score that can move gear between six tiers: Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, Legendary and Artifact. Gear has no fixed loot tables. The system combines 41 base types, 23 materials and 40 Modifiers, with up to six Modifier slots, for about 4.3 billion discrete combinations; continuous Roll values make the stats effectively infinite. Artifact gear has six Modifier slots, a ×2.5 stat multiplier and a drop rate of 1 in 1,270, or about 0.08%.

You can take finished gear to the Workshop to enhance it by up to five tiers, remove or reroll unwanted Modifiers, and infuse elements.

Dispatch adventurers

Adventurers come from 79 jobs and seven ranks, from F to S, and draw names from a pool of 300. They gain experience on dispatch, grow stronger through job levels and a job growth tree, and can equip gear in eight slots: weapon, shield, head, body, arms, legs and two accessories. Dual-wielding is supported. They can use 198 skills across five damage elements.

You send one or multiple parties into 10 dungeons, with auto-repeat runs available. The dungeons contain more than 1,270 monsters: 140 base monsters, eight Elite versions of each, and 10 bosses. Combat runs automatically, and you follow the results in a log that marks deaths in red and injuries in amber.

Run the town

The calendar has 12 months of 28 days, for 336 days in total, with Day 1 always falling on a Monday. Debt accrues at 15% annual interest, compounded daily. You repay it manually, and the finance ledger includes an early-repayment simulator. Water, fuel, rent and mortgage are recurring costs tracked by an arrears counter; if you run out of fuel, the forge goes cold.

Four customer classes—citizens, adventurers, guards and the wealthy—have different hours and wallets. Public order, the day of the week, and supply and demand all affect foot traffic.

Face dungeon threats

Neglected dungeons grow more dangerous each day. If they cross a threshold, a Stampede overruns the town, causing repair bills, forced closures and wounded adventurers. You can respond by building walls, hiring mercenaries or researching a solution.

Develop the shop

More than 80 technology nodes span 10 trees: Forge, Tavern, Clinic, Training Hall, Appraisal, Finance, Dungeon, Commerce, Defense and Magic. Each tree has five tiers, with exclusive endgame choices at the top. You can also expand the warehouse repeatedly to prevent your inventory from overflowing.
