Matches and Merges That Actually Matter
Every game says your choices matter. Havenforge makes it true.
What You're Used To
Match tiles to complete a level for a stranger's objectives.
Merge items to fill NPC orders that reset and repeat forever.
Resources disappear the moment you spend them.
An energy meter decides when you're allowed to keep playing.
Log off to find your world exactly as you left it.
In Havenforge
Match to generate real resources that flow directly into your factory.
Forge materials you'll actually use to build something genuinely yours.
Resources go to your warehouse and wait until you choose to use them.
No energy meters. No limits. Play as long as you want, whenever you want.
Every session ends with a factory that grew and a home you built.
"At the end of every session, your factory is larger, your house is more beautiful, and your world is undeniably, completely yours."
One Living World
Everything connects. Nothing is wasted.
The Puzzle
Match-3 Grid
Solve a synergy-rich grid to produce the exact resources your factory needs: not stars, not coins, real materials that flow into your world.
The Forge
Forging Yard
Drag matching resources together to merge them into rarer materials. Wood scraps become quality timber. Iron shards become orichalcum. Your pace, your choices.
The Factory
Factory Floor
Place and optimize machines on an expandable grid. They process your refined materials into finished goods automatically, even while you're away.
Your Home
House & Haven
Use your finished goods to furnish and decorate your personal home. Every room reflects your choices and sends warmth back to your workshop.
Every resource flows through your hands into a world you are building from scratch. The factory feeds the house. The house inspires the factory. The loop never breaks.
What's Inside
Interconnected systems that feed one cohesive, living world
Synergy Match-3
A grid with routing influence, catalyst tiles, and combo zones: a puzzle with genuine depth that keeps growing and evolving as your factory expands.
The Forging Yard
Full crafting lines that run from raw scraps all the way to legendary tiers, with no risk of ever losing an item to a merge.
Factory Optimization
Tile-based layout with drag-and-drop placement and machine synergies. Adjacent bonuses, harmony clusters, and efficiency multipliers reward clever design.
Innovation Waves
When you want a fresh challenge, voluntarily reset your factory layout for permanent efficiency multipliers while keeping all research, cosmetics, and earned progress.
Your Personal Haven
"The factory is your engine. The house is your soul."
Three Rooms at Launch
The Sanctuary, Workshop Annex, and Garden Sunroom, each with its own feel and layout. More rooms arrive with future updates.
Built by Your Factory
Every piece of furniture and every decorative fixture is crafted from materials your own machines produced. This home is genuinely, completely yours.
Warmth That Works
A beautifully decorated room isn't just for show. It sends a quiet inspiration bonus back to your workers. A well-loved home is a small but real advantage.
Wandering Caravans
Every few days, friendly traveling artisans make camp near your workshop, bringing rare materials, special orders, and stories that make the world feel alive.
What They Bring
Rare materials unavailable through standard production
High-value commissions with premium rewards
Caravan-exclusive mini-puzzle variations
Light world-building and flavor that makes your settlement feel alive
Build a Welcome Area
Invest in caravan infrastructure (a welcome gate, travelers' rest, market pavilion) to attract better visitors with richer rewards. A progression path that's entirely optional and entirely yours to design.
"No pressure. No penalty for skipping. Just opportunity, waiting at the gate."
A World That Keeps Growing
Havenforge is designed from the ground up to expand. Here's what's coming after launch.
Your Town
Construct a living settlement around your workshop. Place taverns, guild halls, market stalls, scholars' towers, and more. Every building you choose makes your town unlike anyone else's.
Visitor Arrivals
Other players' travelers can pass through your town. A welcoming settlement attracts more visitors, and better ones. Build guest quarters, open a market square, and see who shows up.
Buildings That Matter
Your town isn't just scenery. A smithing guild accelerates forging. A scholars' tower unlocks new research. A market expands caravan offerings. Every building decision has a real effect on how you play.
More on the Way
Seasonal events, expanded production chains, new dungeon zones to source exotic materials, and deeper customization across every system. Havenforge is designed to grow.
Our Promise to Players
Havenforge is built on the same principles as every Fathomfire Foundry game
Offline-First
Your factory, your forging yard, and your home all live on your device, so you can play on a plane, in the mountains, almost anywhere. We will only ask for a connection when it genuinely matters, like verifying a purchase or protecting your save, never just to gate everyday play.
Free or Low-Cost
Havenforge will be free to play or carry a small, one-time price at most, full stop: every mechanic, every room, every resource line. Any optional purchases are purely cosmetic, and they never touch a single number.
Zero Energy Meters
No stamina bars. No wait timers. No 'come back in 4 hours.' When you want to play, you play.
Cosmetic IAP Only
Factory themes, machine skins, and house decoration packs. Beautiful extras that change nothing about how the game plays.
Common Questions
Everything you might be wondering about Havenforge

We have not finalized pricing yet. Havenforge will be free or carry a small, one-time price at most, never a subscription. Any optional purchases will always be purely cosmetic and will never change how the game plays.
Does Havenforge need an internet connection?+
Havenforge is offline-first. Your factory, forging yard, and home all live on your device, so you can play on a plane, in the mountains, almost anywhere. We may ask for a brief connection when it genuinely matters, like verifying a purchase or keeping your save secure, but never just to gate everyday play.
Are there energy meters or wait timers?+
Never. No stamina bars, no 'come back in 4 hours,' no lockouts. When you want to play, you play for as long as you like.
Is Havenforge pay-to-win?+
No. Everything that affects gameplay is earned by playing. Purchases are purely cosmetic, and the best-looking items are always earnable in-game too.
What platforms will Havenforge be on?+
iOS, Android, and Steam.
