Where's the Needle? vs Needle Quest

You wake up locked in a warehouse with an open roof. In front of you stands a mountain of hay: millions of strands, and somewhere inside, six buried needles. All you have are your hands. So you start. ONE STRAND AT A TIME Pick hay strand by strand and toss it into the HAY IN intake at the SELL HAY stand. Every strand earns you cents. Cents become dollars, and dollars unlock tool licenses and machine plans in Yard Research. Then buy your gear at Supply Co. BUILD YOUR OWN HAY FACTORY Place every machine wherever you like: conveyor belts, a Dump Hatch, a Steam Rake that needs no power, robot arms in three sizes, Hay Generators wired up with power poles, a Hay Compressor that presses bales, and a Splitter that divides a belt in two. Each extra copy of a machine costs more, so plan your layout. LET THE SCANNER HUNT Mount a scanner arch over a belt. It holds the passing hay, checks it, and sounds a siren when it spots a needle. Careful: sell a needle with the hay or burn it in a generator, and it slips back into the pile. SIX NEEDLES A sewing needle, a desk pin, a safety pin, a bent pin, a hat pin and a darning needle. Each is buried at a different depth, and the deepest hide in the heart of the pile. Every needle you recover goes into your wooden Needle Cabinet until all six slots are full. FEATURES • A first-person 3D haystack you can dig into • Three pile sizes: Small (4.8 million strands), Standard (13.8 million) and Big (34 million), with a peak above the warehouse walls • Yard Research: 8 branches and 48 unlocks and upgrades, from tools, belts and power to your own stamina • Supply Co.: toy shovel, spade, pitchfork, Yard Vac, a metal detector that beeps near a needle, bucket and wheelbarrow • 13 machines and structures to place and connect • Uncover a needle by hand and it glints • A 15-step task card to get you started (you can switch it off) • Game Center leaderboards for the fastest finish on each pile size • Three save slots with autosave • Quality settings from "Potato" for older iPhones up to "High", plus adjustable interface size • Plays fully offline • No ads, no in-app purchases • Landscape only Languages: English and Arabic (Kuwaiti dialect).

One lost needle. A haystack full of secrets. Where would you start? Step onto a colourful little farm and search a giant haystack from a first-person view. Pick up your first handful, sell it at the Hay Market and turn small discoveries into better tools. Every straw you remove opens another little pocket. Dig a hollow, carve a tunnel and uncover what is hiding inside. BUILD YOUR TOOLKIT Start with your bare hand, then work through a glove, mini rake, scoop, pitchfork and shovel to a powerful vacuum. Improve your carrying capacity, gathering speed and hay value as you go. Each tool digs in its own shape. FOLLOW THE COLOUR Green, purple, red and orange rare straws give you crystals for tools. Look for blue tech crystals and hidden treasures to develop your engineering kit. Use a collecting bomb to clear a patch or follow scanner echoes towards a find. Your drone carries its own hay to market and earns coins while you keep exploring. FILL YOUR COLLECTION Find seven distinctive campaign needles as the haystacks grow from 50,000 to 3 million straws. Finish the campaign to unlock Free Play, choose a haystack size and search for secret needles. Discover curious farm treasures and collect all four Sewing Kit pieces for a bonus.
