Forge your own fictional trade in Weapon Shop Fantasy, out this week
It's a smithy's life for you
Fans of games like Holy Potatoes! A Weapon Shop?! and other fantasy sims might be interested to hear that another of its kind is headed to mobile in Weapon Shop Fantasy. The game has already been a hit with PC players on Steam, and now Weapon Shop Fantasy’s coming to the App Store.
In Weapon Shop Fantasy, you’re responsible for managing every detail in your up and coming weapon shop. Hire and pay staff members, build up and improve inventory, and, of course, draw in as many customers as possible.
The game strays a bit from pure sim territory, sprinkling in some light RPG elements as well. You’ll send your workers out into the wilds to gather resources and treasure, and inevitably fight monsters. It breaks up the gameplay loop a bit with some welcome adventuring.
Weapon Shop Fantasy is expected on iOS on February 8. You can choose from a free, Lite version, or pay the one-time premium price of £2.99. You can even carry your game on the Lite version over to premium if you’d like to try before you buy.
