Description

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.

Comments on The Factory for Android

★★★★☆ Jason Hildebrand · Dec 14, 2024

It's great, but there is no end game. Once your automation is up and running then the game plays itself. I would like to see some more content for the late game

★★★★★ Nathan Myers · Apr 7, 2025

Truly a fun game. Simple rule. Up to you how much money u make based on what u choose to manufacturer. Thank you for the game

★★★★☆ Gage Stepek · May 8, 2025

2016 - Such detail and depth! And continued playability is huge! I'd love to see more added! Keep up the great work! 2019 - still the best idle game in 2019. Developers just need to add more items to produce to keep the game fresh. 2022 - I think it's time for a sequel! ;) 😉 wink winkity wink wink 😉 2025: Sadly, not much activity. 😔

★★★★★ Lucas Eliakis · May 9, 2025

I whish you could make the auto buyers buy at a higher amount for a buffer or use more

★★☆☆☆ BV Rose · Sep 21, 2025

After almost 24 hours of total game play, my money and stock got zeroed out, despite neither Bailout nor Reset buttons being pressed. 12k and a maxed set of Tier 1 automatons gone in a bug.

★★☆☆☆ Abel Robles · Dec 20, 2024

Buyers don't work the way it says they do, they just buy whatever they want, wasting lots of money and breaking any automation you try to create
