Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About While the Iron's Hot
I spent a few hours as a master smith tasked with reviving a struggling artisan village in Ellian. The core loop is satisfying: gather resources, forge tools and equipment at your anvil, solve puzzles and environmental challenges, then watch the village slowly come back to life. It's low-pressure and exploration-focused, with a light mystery woven through the narrative that encourages poking around every corner. The crafting feels purposeful rather than busywork, and the pixel art gives everything a storybook warmth. Fair warning: this isn't action-heavy or story-driven in the traditional sense. If you're after a relaxing few hours of tinkering and puzzle-solving with a controller in hand, it delivers. If you need flashy combat or deep character arcs, look elsewhere.
