About

Robot Factory

Features
Read full description

Earth's last scrap-heap. One factory engine still running. One Worker Bot who never stopped trying โ€” and you, the foreman who came back to switch the lights on. Robot Factory is an idle tycoon game about rebuilding the supply chain that takes humanity to Mars. Tap the Forge to mine your first scrap. Build a Worker Bot. Build a Melting Bot. Build a chassis press, a servo line, a Rare Earth excavator, a fabricator, a battery shop, a solar press โ€” and finally a crew of fifty Engineer Bots, who draw the rocket by hand. Six hours, fifty pencils. Each robot has a job. Each job feeds the next. The factory hums on while you sleep, while you commute, while you live your life โ€” and the scrap stacks up, the chassis stack up, the rocket parts get welded. And the rocket is only the halfway point. โ€” FEATURES โ€” โ€ข A nine-bot production chain to start โ€” and a second one waiting past the launch pad. โ€ข Each bot is a single-purpose character with its own voice. The Worker chips. The Melter pours. The Engineer draws. โ€ข Real offline progress, capped fairly. Come back to a factory that ran without you. โ€ข Timers that are the story, not a paywall: the Engineers' six-hour draft, a crew out on contract, a rocket in flight. Anything that waits can be hurried along with Blueprints, which you earn by playing. โ€ข Nothing resets. Your factory stays your factory, for the whole trip. โ€ข A factory floor you can actually understand. Every bot visible, every belt running between the stations that feed each other. โ€ข Industrial-minimal art. Brass, slate, hairline dividers. No clown-mode visual noise. โ€ข A real ending. Reach Mars โ€” the long way round โ€” and see your stats. โ€ข 55 story goals, 41 achievements and fresh daily quests every day. โ€ข A Black Market for Blueprint upgrades, and a Boost shelf for impatient days. โ€ข Plays on iPhone and iPad. The same factory, the same save. โ€ข Works without an internet connection. โ€” THE STORY โ€” The factories were silent. The scrap-heap was tall. You found one engine that still worked, one Worker Bot who never stopped trying, and a city full of empty homes for the bots that would come back. Smelt the scrap. Press the chassis. Send the rocket. โ€” FOR WHO โ€” If you like idle games but wish they had a soul: this is for you. If you like factory-building games but want one that runs in your pocket while you wait for the train: this is for you. If you want a game you can put down for three days, come back to, and find the factory still your factory โ€” with new scrap waiting and a quiet little story moment ready to play โ€” this is for you. โ€” TECH โ€” โ€ข iPhone & iPad โ€” universal. iCloud-synced save, no account needed. โ€ข No ads. No energy systems. โ€ข In-app purchases are entirely optional accelerants. The game is finishable for free. โ€” FROM THE STUDIO โ€” We made the game we wanted to play during the commute. Quiet. Mechanical. With a beating heart. The factory is waiting. Light the Forge.
