72 items across 8 rarities, each with its own rolls
Auto Forge keeps the anvil busy for you
Your forge keeps earning while you are away
Battle through twenty worlds
From forest to fire, your hero fights automatically, stage after stage. Research Fireball, Lightning Strike, Meteor and more to turn the tough boss fights your way.
10 combat abilities to research in the Arcane Forge
A boss guards the end of every world

Tanks, strikers and all-rounders
Ascend and come back stronger
Maxed out your forge? Ascend it. You start over, and everything you craft from then on is permanently stronger, up to three times.

Gold stars show your Ascension on the rankings
Raid the daily dungeons
Every day brings fresh keys for the Gold Vault, the Arcane Sanctum and the Ember Crypt: extra gold, arcane shards and soul embers on top of the campaign. Version 1.18.0 puts the Gold King in the Gold Vault, a 45-second boss fight in three phases, and adds a fourth dungeon, the Runic Nexus.
Two free keys per dungeon, every day

Unlock them as your forge grows
New in 1.18.0
Break the runes of the Runic Nexus
A fourth daily dungeon with 120 stages. Every stage carries a rune that is weak to some hero stats and resists others, so the build you bring matters. Clear stages to earn Runic Tomes.
Opens at Forge Level 8, with two free keys a day
A boss with two runes on every tenth stage
Bring the right loadout for each rune
New in 1.18.0
Research the Runic Forge
Spend Runic Tomes on 63 permanent upgrades in three tabs: more income and offline time in Forge, better rolls on new gear and souls in Stats, and bigger dungeon rewards and cheaper summons in Arsenal.
One research at a time, or two with the Study Queue
Sunday is Runic Day, from 8 November: research earns 50% more Forge Marks
Contracts and rankings
Three daily contracts, a weekly Royal Contract and live rankings give every session a goal. Tap any player to see their hero, with the abilities and souls they bring.
Loadouts
Save your gear, souls and spells as a loadout and switch builds in one tap: one for farming, one for bosses and dungeons. Loadouts unlock at Forge Level 10.
A Journey for new smiths
Seventeen short missions guide you through your first steps, from your first craft to your first soul, with a reward for each one.
Forge Together
Share your invite code. When a friend you invited clears World 1, you both get gems and forge gold.

Latest from the forge
New update · Version 1.18.0
The Runic Nexus, the Runic Forge and the Gold King

Idle Forge is a blacksmith idle RPG. You run the forge, craft weapons and armour, and equip them to a hero who fights automatically through a campaign of twenty worlds. Your input is what you make and what you equip, not how fast you tap.
Is Idle Forge free to play?
Yes. Idle Forge is free to download on both stores, and it has optional in-app purchases. Nothing on this site is sold; the shop is inside the game.
What can I craft?
Seventy-two items: nine equipment types across eight rarities, from Common up to Divine. Each craft rolls its own quality and stat bonuses, so two items of the same rarity are not the same item.
What are Forge Clans?
Clans of up to ten players. You can join one from Forge Level 7 and found your own from Forge Level 10. Members share a clan chat with @mentions, earn Forge Marks together, open a weekly Clan Chest and fight a Clan War every week.
How do Clan Wars work?
Every week your clan is matched with a clan of similar strength. From Tuesday to Sunday, members earn Forge Marks by finishing forge upgrades, ability research, soul summons and soul levelling, dungeon runs and contracts, and each day features one activity worth 50% more. Monday is Claim Day: the war is settled, both clans collect rewards and the next war begins. When no clan of similar strength is free, you face an Echo, a replay of a real clan's earlier week.
What is the Soul Forge?
The Soul Forge summons souls that fight alongside your hero. There are twenty-four to collect, three in each of the eight rarities, and three can be equipped at once. It unlocks at Forge Level 6.
What are combat abilities?
Ten abilities your hero can unlock and research in the Arcane Forge, such as Fireball, Lightning Strike and Meteor. They change how boss fights and dungeon runs go, and they are researched rather than bought.
What are daily dungeons?
Four dungeons, each with two free keys a day and rewards separate from the main campaign: gold in the Gold Vault, arcane shards in the Arcane Sanctum, soul embers in the Ember Crypt and Runic Tomes in the Runic Nexus. Keys you earn or buy carry over, up to 999 per dungeon.
What is the Runic Forge?
A research tree that came with version 1.18.0 and opens at Forge Level 8. You spend Runic Tomes from the Runic Nexus on 63 permanent upgrades in three tabs: Forge (income, offline time, rack places), Stats (better rolls on new gear and souls) and Arsenal (dungeon rewards and soul summons).
Which platforms is Idle Forge on?
iOS and Android. It is a mobile game and there is no browser version.
Your forge is waiting
Free on iPhone, iPad and Android, with a new update almost every week.
