About this game

Somewhere inside 5,000,000 individual pieces of hay is a single needle. Your goal is simple: find the needle.

Needle In A Haystack Simulator turns the world's most famous impossible task into a real game. Every piece of hay can be grabbed, moved and tossed aside, and somewhere in that golden mountain one tiny needle is waiting for you. Think you can find a needle in a haystack? Prove it.

START WITH NOTHING
At first it's just you and the haystack. Pull the hay apart piece by piece, search every corner of the pile, and uncover hidden valuables buried along the way.

SELL, UPGRADE, SEARCH FASTER
Sell what you find and spend the money on better tools. Go from bare hands to shovels, blowers and ridiculous machines that move huge amounts of hay at once. The deeper you dig, the crazier your needle-hunting operation becomes.

PURE MODE: THE TRUE NEEDLE IN A HAYSTACK EXPERIENCE
Want the real challenge? Play with no upgrades, no tools and no automation. Just you, 5,000,000 pieces of hay and 1 needle.

FIND THE NEEDLE WITH FRIENDS
Team up online and search the same haystack together. Split up the pile, share your tools, and argue about where the needle is hiding. More searchers doesn't always mean more help.

RELAXING, SATISFYING... OR MADDENING
Some players find the haystack calm and meditative. Others find it slightly less calm. Either way, every piece of hay you move brings you one step closer to the needle.

The graphics are 5/5, but seriously, what is going on with the ads? It feels like there’s an ad after every single click. You play for 2–3 minutes, try to pause the game, get another ad, and then the game crashes — and there goes your progress. On top of that, after about five minutes of playing, my phone gets so hot that I can barely touch the screen. The game itself looks great and has potential, but in its current state, with the ridiculous amount of forced ads, constant crashes.. nonono!

Officially I have now played this for 7 hours. I haven't seen a coin in forever so not sure if the coin pickup delay was extended but I no longer hand pick items I let the robot arms do it for me now. There is now an ad-free version for 1$. So far the best version of this app in the play store. This should be higher rated for sure.

Info for Dev, Hay rake doesn't work at all, constantly gets blocked or just flings hay onto itself no matter the distance set. Turn mission can be completed with Bluetooth mouth clicking the middle button. Mobile controls need to be worked on or controller support added, many times you find yourself needing 3 hands. Reduce image quality of the hay. No need for trying to get high graphics. Menus are hard to scroll as the bar is tiny and without free space you end up selecting items you don't want
