Each class possessed a unique set of abilities and a distinct play style. Examples included a melee-focused warrior, a ranged magic-user, and a healing support character.

Development and Reception:

Forge was developed by Dark Vale Games, an independent studio. Upon release, the game received mixed reviews. While praised for its fast-paced combat and unique class designs, it was criticized for its technical issues, steep learning curve, and lack of a substantial player base.
