A downloadable game for Windows

Become a proud locksmith master !

Complete tasks and forge fantasy-inspired keys in this relaxing puzzle game.

How to play : 

Select a new task and try and make your pieces fit together to complete it. 


  • Drag and drop grey shapes in the key frame to match the green pattern. 


  • If by misfortune, one of your shape is trapped outside your reach because the UI jailed it, click "Gather pieces" to bring them all back to the "Shapes area" thing 
  • Use mouse wheel to rotate shapes (while dragging them).

If you ever run out of shapes or your shapes can fit in the pattern, you've got two options :

  • Buy new ones in the shop (stocks are limited !). Your currency is displayed in between the yellow brackets.


  • Under the "Melt and Cast" section, you'll find useful tools :
    • The melter : drag & drop shapes onto it to collect iron drops. Your total number of drops is displayed right below. 
    • The casting mold : create new 3x3 shapes by repeatedly  click on its cells. (You can't spend less than 6 liquid iron drops to cast a shape!)

How many keys will you be able to smith ? 

(Full disclosure : at this stage, whether or not you can complete the game is not guaranted, it was the prize of providing numerous puzzles)

I deeply thank my soul mate Ulynor for crafting the puzzles you will complete in this game and for her never-ending support.

BONUS (ES): 

  • In Main Menu , you'll find a "Key Editor" section, it contains the tool i crafted to easily generate pseudo-random keys using a modified Wave Function Collpase algorithm and edit them. The visuals are completely broken at the moment, I couldn't possibly take time to polish it.
  • "Credits" section in completely none existing.
  • If you are interested in the library used to make this game, you'll find clickable links at the bottom of the main menu !
