Have you ever wanted to run your own business empire? Idle Factory challenges you to build the biggest and most profitable empire of them all!  You can upgrade your factories, compare with your friends, and climb to the top of the profit ladder. Have fun creating strategies and taking part in special events too!

Be sure to follow the on-screen instructions, at the beginning there will be plenty to unlock! Also keep an eye on your bottleneck indicator to find out which station is providing the weakest link – level upyour Warehouse, Workstations, and Market all in line with each other for maximum efficiency!

Idle Cash is the amount of cash your workers collect for you when you are not actively playing our game. Once you start the game again after a break, you can collect your Idle Cash and it will automatically be added to your normal Cash.

Super Cash is the in-game premium money. You can use this to speed progress up! You earn Super Cash in game by completing milestones or by purchasing it from the in-game shop!

You can purchase Speed & Sales Upgrade Clocks/Bells which can be activated in each factory to make your workers work faster for a short period of time. Once activated, there is a cool-down period before you can use them again.
To purchase a clock, go to the Skill Points menu (bottom right next to the map). Here you can buy the Skill Points for the factory you are in, and then purchase the upgrades which unlock the clocks for that factory.

The in-game currency system is set up like this:
K = 1,000
M = 1,000,000
B = 1,000,000,000
T = 1,000,000,000,000
aa = 1,000,000,000,000,000
ab = 1,000,000,000,000,000,000
ac = etc.
We use this system to make big numbers easily recognizable and comparable.

You can buy up to 30 work stations per factory, each  workstation can be leveled up to 800. The market and the warehouse can each be leveled up to 2400.

You can watch ads to give yourself a small boost to your sales within your game. Whenever you’re coming back from being Idle (offline) you can also use an ad to be able to double the amount that you earned while you were offline!

You can use boosts to multiply your earnings in-game and while you’re offline! These are bought through the in-game shop and look like batteries.
Currently you can purchase 2x boosts and 5x boosts. For 10 minutes and 1 hour through the normal store, or if you earn enough event tickets during an event you can purchase 4x boost for 4 hours, or 6x boost for 2 hours!
All boosts that you earn or buy will be found in the boost inventory which will be found right beside the world map. ?

There are 6 districts in our game, each one with different products to choose from and 6 different factories in each! That’s 36 different factories to work with.
The different districts are: General District, Transport District, Toy District, Sport District, Music District, and Furniture District.
You can use the boost/collect all global function in late game to help cut down on the micromanagement.

Your daily bonus is your reward for logging in each day and is found through the store. If you tap on the store at the top left-hand corner there’ll be a little icon of a calendar. From there you can claim your daily rewards. ?

You can invite your friends though Facebook! They’ll provide a boost per friend you have (all the more reason to tell your friends to download Idle Factory Tycoon!).
To invite your friends through Facebook please:

• Step 1: Tap the little blue outline of a man near the top
• Step 2: Tap Invite
• Step 3: Tap the Facebook icon
• Step 4: Post a invite link to your Facebook page

Alternatively you can send friends direct invite link and send it directly to them.

You have the option to upgrade the products your factories make, this helps you earn more money!
To upgrade a product, you’re producing you click on the blueprint icon near the shop icon (bottom left of your game) to upgrade the resource you use to make a product.
This will increase the value of the product! You can decrease the time that it takes to unlock an upgrade by spending Super Cash, or by watching ads.
You will see product upgrades in your game when you unlock Workstation 10 in the Iron Ore factory.

Skills are used to boost many different parts of the game, from production values to ad boosts.
Each individual district will give you access to a new skill tree so be sure to check back whenever you’ve unlocked a new district!
You find the skills in the special Skills building at the top of the world map. Skill Points are bought through the shop using Super Cash, or you can earn them through the Event factories!
You will see Skills in your game when you unlock Workstation 11 in the Iron Ore factory.

In progressing through factories you’ll start unlocking Super Worker cards. These will assign Super Workers to the factories they’re intended for. Super Workers are automatically assigned so you don’t need to worry about managing them.
The more Super Worker cards you unlock, the more you’ll need to manually level up the Workers! Remember to check in the shop regularly as well, to claim your free Wooden Chest every 4 hours, so you can collect as many cards as possible.
You will see Super Workers in your game when you unlock Workstation 13 in the Iron Ore factory.

Events are time-limited factories with different themes, they reward you for progressing through them before time runs out!
You’ll also have access to the Event Shop once you’ve unlocked the Event Factories, from there you can purchase boosts and Skill Points using Event Tickets you’ve gained through rewards. Try them out! Earn your badges and compare with your friends!
You will see Event Factories in your game when you unlock Workstation 14 in the Iron Ore factory.

Prestige will reset your factory so you play it from the beginning, but it will have a much higher multiplier which means you will earn a lot more money when upgrading the factory again.
Each time you Prestige a factory, you will get an even higher multiplier. To Prestige a factory, you need to spend some Cash. The cost is displayed on the Prestige pop-up each time. When you Prestige, you will keep the rest of your Cash (after paying the Prestige fee), plus your Super Cash and other factories.
When you prestige you’ll keep all off your upgrades, Super Cash, and factories. You will lose your workstations, and your levels. Depending on your net worth you will receive a certain amount of stars for Prestige, you can use these trophies to permanently upgrade your factories, and use stars to even further boost your trophies!
You will see Prestige and Trophies in your game when you unlock Workstation 16 in the Copper factory.

Sadly, we don’t have a cloudsave feature in the game yet, so it’s not possible to save your game or recover a lost account.
However, it is a feature we want to work on in the future. In the meantime, if you uninstall the game or change phones, you will sadly lose your progress.
If you have lost your progress, please contact our support directly at community@idlefactorytycoon.com. Even though we won’t be able to get your old progress back we will be able to help in other ways! ?

Unfortunately, as we don’t have the cloudsave feature enabled yet we cannot transfer progress from OS to OS.
Please get in touch with us though as we might be able to help other ways.
