Radosław Kaśkiewicz from The Epic Lore explained:
The demo is just a little taste of the game. Players will get to experience some of the basic mechanics, while the full version will be much more extensive. Ironsmith Medieval Simulator is the kind of game we would like to play ourselves. Through all the years of the gaming industry’s development, blacksmiths were basically treated as the background for RPGs. It’s high time to change it.
Your time at the forge will not be tedious. It is a job that stimulates creativity. We provide players with an array of possibilities, enabling them to create the equipment they want. They will be able to assemble every part of the sword or armour themselves. We are preparing a wide range of available activities related to, among others, the choice of the type of metal to use, the appearance of the equipment, unique engravings, gems and other additional elements.
Ironsmith Medieval Simulator is slated for release in Early Access on Steam in Q3 2020. A console release might also be considered at a later stage however at this point, only a PC release is confirmed. You can get a taste of the game by downloading and trying out the free prologue right now.
