Start with a small warehouse and buy plots containing procedurally placed underground resources. Search and dig with tools that range from a shovel to pickaxes, jackhammers, and explosives, then transport what you extract back to the factory.
Process resources with machines and recipes to make goods for company contracts. Arrange production lines with conveyors, move pallets with forklifts, prepare deliveries, and negotiate contract terms; later, robots and workers can take on some logistical tasks.
Earn money and progress to unlock machines, recipes, licenses, equipment, and factory upgrades. Expand your operation by purchasing more properties and improving production, either handling the work solo or sharing mining, transport, and factory duties in co-op for up to four players.
Players who enjoy the game often praise the hands-on digging and the steady loop of processing resources, earning money, and expanding the factory. Co-op role-splitting is a recurring highlight, while some reviewers find mining and contracts repetitive, automation limited, and solo progression demanding.
Ore Factory Squad is a co-op mining and factory-building game with procedural mining and fun at its core! Start from a small warehouse, buy properties, dig deep for resources, process what you extract, and turn it into profit. Expand step by step and turn a simple setup into a fully functioning factory.
Play solo or with up to 4 players, running the entire operation yourself or working together to build it faster!
Every property features procedurally generated underground resources with no fixed paths, allowing you to dig freely and shape your own tunnels.
Start with a shovel, move on to pickaxes for tougher layers, use jackhammers to speed things up, and clear large sections with dynamite. As you go deeper, resources become more valuable, making each decision more important.
Your factory starts with simple machines and basic resources, then expands as you unlock new machines and recipes through progression and licenses.
Handle logistics with pallets and forklifts, connect your machines with conveyor belts to create more efficient production flows, gradually turning your warehouse into a larger and more capable industrial system.
Purchase different types of properties, each featuring randomized resource distribution and profit potential.
From small backyards to big construction sites, forest areas, and large quarries on snowy mountains, each location offers a different environment and opportunities.
Dig, extract, process, and turn every property into profit as you grow into larger and more valuable operations.
Take on contracts from companies requesting specific products and quantities, negotiate deals, prepare deliveries, and load trucks to fulfill orders for higher rewards.
Manage your stock, use smart warehouse robots, organize shipments, and balance your growth with fast stock sales.
Begin with simple tools and unlock and upgrade more powerful mining equipment as you progress.
Upgrade your factory to expand your operation, increase your market reach, take on more contracts, improve negotiation rates, hire and manage workers, and gain licenses that unlock new machines and production lines.
Customize your character with different outfits, faces, gloves, and helmets, and personalize your factory with walls, floors, signs, and decorations.
Run everything yourself or work together as a team. Take full control and progress at your own pace, or split the work, optimize production, and grow faster together.
