The Dwar7s are back and this time, the city is burning.

Flame & Forge is a brand-new, completely standalone game for 1–4 players that blends worker placement, deck-building, push-your-luck combat, and boss-battler excitement into one fiery adventure.

March your dwarfs through a city under siege, gather gems, forge powerful weapons, upgrade your workers, and face monsters that may become valuable additions to your deck — if you survive the fight. Every battle is a gamble: push deeper for a chance at victory, or flee before your own deck turns against you.

But the dragon is not waiting. As the battle rages, fire spreads across the city, destroying locations and bringing everyone closer to defeat.

Before the game begins, choose your path: cooperate to save the city and slay the mighty red dragon together, or compete to prove who deserves to claim the throne as the next Dwarf King.

With evolving worker abilities, tactical movement, deck-building through combat, and a relentless dragon threatening the city, every decision matters.

Forge your weapons. Face the flames. Slay the dragon. Claim your destiny.
