What is the game about?

In Furnace, you step into the world of 19th-century industrialists building and optimizing their own factories. New production lines, raw materials, and machines are constantly appearing on the market, but only through competitive auctions can you acquire the right cards. You build your factory layer by layer into a well-oiled production machine that becomes more efficient with each round. The game is full of a sense of growth, optimization, and industrial strength—ideal for players who appreciate systems that increasingly click.

How do you play the game?

The game consists of four rounds in which players bid on new factory cards with disks of value 1-4. You may never bid the same value as another player on the same card, and you may not bid twice on the same card. The winner receives the card, while the losers receive compensating resources, which are sometimes even more valuable than winning. Then everyone builds their cards in order and activates their entire production chain, with each choice affecting the next. After four rounds, the player with the most money wins.

How is the game experienced?

Furnace is a tight and addictive puzzle game that offers a wonderful sense of growth and optimization. The auction is exciting because sometimes losing is better than winning, and the production phases feel like a small logistical victory when everything falls into place perfectly. The game plays surprisingly smoothly, looks beautiful, and offers plenty of variety thanks to the different characters. The only downside is that it sometimes ends too quickly, especially for players who enjoy tinkering with their engine. However, for fans of engine builders and clever tactical puzzles, this is an absolute winner.
