29 MAY 2026 \u200b - Terahard Studios is excited to announce its latest title, Runesmith, a turn-based tactical RPG where rune-forging, tavern brawls, and catastrophic status-effect combinations are all part of a proper dwarven workday.

"Runesmith is a dream come true as it's the company's first true RPG, something that I've wanted to build in all the 13 years of Terahard's existence. Fantasy dwarves are loved for a lot of different reasons and their deep lore makes them extra interesting. Being a D&D player for many years, it was something that I always wanted to try. Runesmith is a mixture of our humour, crafting and how both can affect combat in interesting ways."
\u200b\u200b- Aris Tsevrenis, CEO of Terahard Studios

The game’s first trailer premiered during the Indie Quest 2026 Showcase, alongside the launch of the official Steam page, now open for wishlists.

About the Game

Live your life as a fantasy dwarf! Hammer runes into mythril, drink enough ale to frighten a priest, and solve your problems the traditional dwarven way: excessive violence in both dungeons and taverns.

Gather a band of equally questionable adventurers and hunt down the all-powerful villain threatening the world. Not to save it, mind you, but because the bastard still owes you coin. No one cheats a dwarf and lives long enough to tell the tale.
