Blacksmith Master News Recap


Update #14 focused heavily on rebalancing, bug fixing, and giving players more control of their shop. Mid- and late-game progression has been rebalanced to reduce idle time after the early game; you can now also manually close your shop to reset it. Worker salaries have also been adjusted for balance.

Patch #15, the most recent update to come to Blacksmith Master takes on one of the most highly requested features ab improved staff menu which enables a list view and multi-edit. This new staff menu also gives much more detailed information around your workers. Traits, salaries, and specific settings for their duty can all be seen and edited in this menu.
