About this game
Description
Supplied by the Steam store
You were a farmer. At least, you think you were. Now you're stuck inside a strange warehouse, standing in front of an endless haystack. You don't remember how you got here, who brought you here, or why the doors won't open. There is only one instruction: Find the needles.
There are some in the pile. You start by hand, with a metal detector. You end up with belts, balers, scanners and robotic arms doing the looking for you. Place real machines, wire the power, feed them by belt. Sell the hay, buy more machines, get given a bigger pile.
Nobody has said what happens when you finish.
The pile
Begin By Hand
The tools
Buy tools like shovels, buckets, wheelbarrows, pitchforks, vacuums. Anything that helps you process hay manually!
Start Automating
Automate everything! Build robots, drones, conveyor belts, hay wrappers, paper machines, sorting machines, and advanced systems that process hay and search for needles while you focus on expanding your factory.
Hay products
Turn ordinary hay into valuable products! Process it into hay pulp, compressed bales, eco bricks, hay paper, pellets, and much more. Build new production lines, unlock advanced machinery, and find better ways to turn your mountain of hay into profit.
Tech tree
Progress through a huge tech tree with over 300 upgrades! Unlock new machines, improve production speed, increase efficiency, expand your factory, and discover entirely new ways to process hay.
What happens when you collect all the needles?
