Story
From Zero: Idle Factory is an active incremental factory-management game about turning a worn-out workshop into eight increasingly advanced factories. Start each production line by hand. Store products, ship them for profit and reinvest every payment. As the factory grows, robots take over repetitive work and your attention shifts from clicking machines to making smarter production decisions. ALT: At a busy factory, the player ships stocked products; the payout appears while production continues. Build from the floor up Grow through eight factories and 24 products. Each stage brings its own objectives, events and technologies. Choose where to invest. Improve machine speed and quality, expand warehouse capacity, manage electricity and water, and complete timed training and development projects. Shape the factory floor. Add machines and place support equipment where it benefits production most. Complete factory-specific tasks and solve temporary problems. Earn varied rewards, read every event's effect clearly and repair it at a cost that stays fixed once the event begins. Turn routine work into automation Install robots, assign them to the machines that need them most...
