Forge and Fight

We as humans love creating things, micromanaging every detail and crafting them to fit our image of perfection. Ironically, we also love destroying stuff so it would be hard to believe there would be a way to balance these two passions out. Forge and Fight is a title that attempts to do just that, by allowing you to craft your weapons from scratch, regardless of how outrageous they end up looking.

The game is divided into two parts; the weapons creation mode where you forge the instruments of destruction, and the arena where you test them out against AI opponents. The weapons forging part is probably the most fun of the two since here you can edit every aspect of your weapon, starting from the grip type to the actual parts that cause the destruction. These can be anything from sword edges, maces, spikes, katanas, chainsaws, etc.

While you may know that a common sword is made up of a handle and a blade, you don't have to limit yourself when creating your weapon, since Forge and Fight lets you create anything you can imagine, even a weapon made out of a long pole with five chainsaws attaches to the end.

Once you are done creating your weapons, you can enter the arena and test them out. However, you must take into consideration that enemies spawn with randomly generated weapons in their hands, even the ones you created, so don't think if you have the ultimate weapon, you'll be able to beat anyone. Combat isn't all that engaging at all, since all you can do is move, and attacking an enemy is done by mindlessly swinging your mouse from side to side, hoping they die faster.

Forge and Fight is the type of game that can be entered in the "guilty pleasure" category, since it doesn't have the best graphics, the story in nonexistent, but the gameplay and premise are almost addictive.
