Smithworks is a first-person 3D cooperative multiplayer game where players play as fledgling blacksmiths. It is a humorous and chaotic experience where players will need to communicate effectively in order to craft these weapons quickly before the customers get angry.

You play as Smitta, a new member of a blacksmiths' guild that promises same-day weapon orders. As customers arrive and wait, you and your fellow smiths work to fulfill their requests while keeping the guild running.
In real time, players handle weapon-making contracts under a clock. The team decides which orders to prioritize and how to divide the work, relying on communication to finish before customers lose patience.
Orders are procedurally generated, and levels introduce new mechanics as you progress. Levels are altered for solo, two-player, and three-to-four-player groups, with co-op supporting up to four players.
Players who enjoy Smithworks most often praise the chaotic fun of playing with friends, especially when a team’s communication and coordination improve over time. Reviews also describe laughs from mistakes and a satisfying sense of progress as levels introduce challenges. Some players find the time pressure stressful rather than fun.
