Tinkerer is a cozy crafting game for people who like quiet things. Wander to gather little parts. Build small contraptions on the workbench — wind-up mice, weather vanes, music boxes. Deliver them to neighbors who ask politely. That's the whole game, and it's the whole point. No timers nagging you back. No ads. No energy meters demanding cash. Just tinkering at your own pace. Workshop Supporter is a single, optional, one-time purchase that unlocks the Shelf and helps fund new contraptions. That's it — no subscriptions, no battle pass, no loot boxes. Take your time.
