Forge Clicker

Forge Clicker is a free idle/clicker game about building a tiny forge into a full production empire. Strike the anvil to create metal, sell that metal for coins, buy stronger tools, hire workers, unlock mines, expand workshops, and eventually prestige for runes that make future runs stronger.

Itch.io Description

Forge Clicker is a simple idle/clicker forge game where every hammer strike pushes your workshop a little further.

Start by striking the anvil to produce metal. Sell your stored metal for coins, then spend those coins on hammers, apprentices, furnaces, mines, and workshops. Each upgrade helps your forge grow faster: hammers improve manual clicks, apprentices and workshops generate metal over time, furnaces multiply your production, and mines increase how much money your metal is worth when sold.

As your forge grows, you can hire a merchant to automatically sell part of your stored metal. Later, the Runes & Prestige tab lets you reset your current run in exchange for runes. Runes are permanent and can be spent on powerful perks, making the next run faster and easier.

This is a lightweight progression game built for short sessions, steady upgrades, and watching numbers climb.

How To Play

• Click STRIKE THE ANVIL to produce metal.
• Click Sell All Metal to convert stored metal into coins.
• Buy hammers to increase metal gained per click.
• Hire apprentices and build workshops to produce metal automatically.
• Buy furnaces to multiply click, auto-production, sell value, or global output.
• Unlock mines to improve the coin value of all metal you sell.
• Complete achievements as long-term goals.
• Use Save Now in Settings if you want to manually save.

Important Systems

Merchant

The merchant is a one-time purchase for each run. Once hired, the merchant automatically sells a fraction of your stored metal over time, so you keep earning coins without pressing Sell All Metal every time.

The merchant resets when you prestige, so you need to hire the merchant again on each new run.

Prestige And Runes

Prestige is found in the Runes & Prestige tab. When you prestige, the current run resets, but you earn runes based on how much progress you made.

Runes are permanent. You can spend them on rune perks that improve future runs, such as stronger clicks, better automatic production, better selling, cheaper costs, critical strikes, starting coins, and global bonuses.

Prestige is meant for when progress starts to slow down. If the prestige button says you will gain +0 runes, it is usually better to keep playing before resetting.
