About this game

Can you build a self-sustaining factory without going bankrupt? You win the game once it's capable of playing itself!

"I like building forklifts." — Lenore

The Factory is a mash-up of a crafting sim, resource manager and clicker. Start by purchasing raw materials, building basic items to sell at a profit, and slowly working up the crafting chain to the more complex items. The highest tier items are called Builders, and are capable of manufacturing items for you. There's even a Builder Builder which manufactures more builders.

"NEED MOAR" — Richard

The Factory contains two In-app Purchases, a bailout and a supply package. Most players should never need these, and indeed if you run out of money you can just start over with a generous initial budget. However, if you just need a small bump to keep going, maybe a bailout is for you. Alternatively if you want to jumpstart a production run, a supply package can save you time.

This game was made as a hobby project more than anything else, and was inspired by the concept of a clicker that clicks for you.

A good if not great skeleton marred by the lack of any meat on it. The concept is good, discovering new items by producing components before it is quite brilliant honestly, the mechanics overall solid. But this desperately needs options to fine-tune the whole process, have SOME control over the production, priorities and thresholds. Let me stockpile more than 20 items before they start being sold automatically! I hope this game receives an update at some point.

Good game? No. The building side is fun but selling... not so much, there's a large wait for premium items and since there's no background activity, a large portion of game time wasted. Then there's the bugs; started playing... great. Runs like a normal game but of course I progressed and earned a lot of money, which was somehow lost, along with most of my inventory, then I look at the sales history and oh my, what's that? my game save was lost just like that. Fortunately it's simple and boring

Very good, I love this type of game. However, it's not 5 stars because there needs to be more stuff you can craft and sell and the sell times for the expensive items are too long. Also having the option to make the seller only sell end products (ones that cant be used to make anything else) because mine keeps selling all my crafting items, even though i'm on £7000. If these things could be improved I wouldn't hesitate to give this game 5 stars.
