Jacksmith

Action/RPG

Jacksmith the donkey blacksmith is a master of his craft and one of the smartest characters in the fable-styled fantasy realm. Accompanied by the loyal dog apprentice Scout he’s come to truly enjoy his job, but making a living solely from selling hinges and horseshoes won’t cut it anymore. Across the realm ruled by the Royal Plumpfeather family, the most unexpected opportunity arises.

Dudley the rat wizard has abducted the king’s beautiful daughter Liliana whom he’s been romantically obsessing over for a while. A substantial bounty awaits anyone who manages to apprehend the perpetrator and save the kidnapped princess. While our protagonist is a master at forging a weapon, wielding one is not exactly the dynamic duo’s strong suit.

Jacksmith and Scout decide to pack their smithy into a carriage and put their craft to proper use by supplying the frontline troops. Not that we doubt our protagonist’s noble intentions, but in times of war, selling weapons is the most lucrative of businesses, after all.

This unexpected gem is as good RPG as any, with an epic fantasy storyline, rewarding progression, ASMR weapon-crafting mechanics, addictive gameplay, and flawless UI design. The immaculate gaming experience is topped off with eye-catching visuals, epic music, and immersive sound effects.
