About This Game

Lair of the Locksmith is a high-density puzzle game in which conventional platforming elements intersect with arcane magic. Delve into a dwarvish citadel full of locked doors to rescue your goblin friends imprisoned within. Use observation and experimentation to discover interactions, then apply reasoning to piece them together. Knowledge is cumulative: a breakthrough in one level becomes a solution technique later on.

The Citadel

• 60 handcrafted levels built on a small set of mechanics.
  
• Puzzle-solving not precision platforming.
  
• Non-linear: stuck on one level? Try another and return later.
  
• Smooth rewind function: experiment safely and undo mistakes.

The Apparatus

• Keys may be combined to forge new variants, providing different options for unlocking doors.
  
• Boxes are mundane but versatile: carry them, stack them, jump on to them, and place keys on them.
  
• Cursed Keys are volatile: they leap into your hands and refuse to be dropped.
  
• Heavy Keys restrict movement, letting them fall causes impact tremors.
  
• Chickens are probably an unintended consequence of imperfect dwarvish magic. Plan accordingly.

For the wretched goblins trapped within the Locksmith’s masterpiece, your logic is the only way out.
