Skarpa is an independent publisher in Wisconsin. Right now that means three titles: an RPG that runs on your real goals, a smithing sim you play with your thumbs, and a card game that turns game night wild. More kinds of media are not far behind.
No spam, just milestones, tester invites, and launch news.
All three are in active development. Dive into one, buy a deck, or put your name down to help test the ones still on the workbench. Games are where we started, not where we stop.
iOS and Android · In beta
Build a pixel hero, pick three attributes, and complete real tasks to level up skills, take down bosses you set yourself, and climb the gem ranks from Stone to a secret band past Diamond.
A smithing simulator built around one satisfying thing: hitting hot metal at exactly the right moment. Work the bellows, time your strikes, and turn scrap iron into something worth selling.
Card game · On sale now
A game of attention, intention, and interaction, as simple or as chaotic as you make it. Match color, animal, or number, drop a FERAL card, and watch the table lose it.
Every task you finish in real life levels a skill, raises an attribute, and pushes you toward your next gem rank. Name a real milestone as a boss, chip its health down with real work, and actually look forward to your to-do list.
Forge Tap is about the moment the metal is exactly hot enough. Pump the bellows, watch the heat climb, and land your hammer in the narrow window where iron actually moves.
Want a game night where everyone, from the kids to your mother-in-law, ends up rolling on the floor laughing? Feral is a fast, wild card game with rules as simple or as chaotic as you choose.
