The idea of this game is wonderful; I think smithing is somewhat of a lost art these days so a game centered on it is great. The game narrative changing depending on your performance is great too. The lore and world-building in this game is simply immense for a game which has functionally three boards/menus. I did have some notable bugs, however, when trying to play. Menus tended to clang into each other (which really became an issue if you worked out of order) and the lack of a tutorial made it a bit harder than it needed to be. But overall, this is a pleasant experience and I loved it very much.
