Take command of a military equipment factory and turn it into the biggest supplier in the world. Armory Tycoon is an idle management and industrial strategy game. You start with a single body armor line and a handful of dollars. Your job as Director is to produce, accept the right contracts, deliver them on time and reinvest every profit to grow your defense industry. PRODUCTION - Five factories: Protection, Weapons, Ammunition, Electronics Lab and Industrial Plant. - More than fifteen production lines, from helmets and ceramic plates to drones and armored vehicles. - Production keeps running even when you close the game. CONTRACTS AND FACTIONS - Receive orders from all over the world on a tactical map. - Three factions with different styles: the Government pays steadily, Mercenaries pay well but demand speed, and Corporations are after technology. - Raise your standing with each faction and unlock exclusive bonuses. - Critical, urgent and exclusive contracts: choose wisely, because a missed contract costs reputation. GROWTH - Research and development to open new factories and products. - Upgrades for automation, output, logistics, storage and quality control. - Black market, auctions and events that change the course of your game. - Prestige system to start over with permanent advantages. - Achievements, detailed statistics and visual customization. NEW CHOICES EVERY RUN - Pick a doctrine each run and shape how your company grows. - Make decisions in events and keep an eye on your rivals. - Spend money on public relations to rebuild your reputation. No sign-up or account: your game is saved on your device and you can export it as a backup. Armory Tycoon is a management game. It contains no combat or violence: weapons and equipment appear only as products in a manufacturing chain.
