Description

Supplied by the Steam store

Find the needle in a haystack!

Welcome to A Needle In A Haystack: Sorting Game , a satisfying sorting simulation game where you take one of the world's most impossible sayings and turn it into your job!

Your mission is simple: there's a needle somewhere in that enormous pile of hay. Find it.

Start small by picking up hay piece by piece, sorting through the pile and selling what you collect for money. The more you earn, the more you can invest back into your barn and turn a painfully slow search into a hay-sorting operation!

SORT. SELL. UPGRADE.

Every piece of hay gets you closer to finding the needle — and closer to your next upgrade.

Use the money you earn to upgrade your barn , improve your equipment and unlock new ways to tackle increasingly massive haystacks.

UNLOCK NEW TOOLS

Picking up hay one piece at a time might work at first... but you're going to need something better.

Buy shovels to scoop up more hay at once, unlock ladders to reach the top of towering haystacks, and discover even more useful equipment as you progress.

The bigger your operation becomes, the faster you can sort!

THERE'S A NEEDLE IN THERE... SOMEWHERE.

Dig deeper. Clear the pile. Upgrade your barn. Buy better tools.

And most importantly...

Find the needle in a haystack!
