ShapeHero Factory
Build heroes out of shapes on conveyor belts, then send them off to fight swarms of rude enemies while you build a better factory. A cute, colorful mix of factory, tower defense and roguelite where the runs are short and the "one more go" pull is strong.

Tower Factory
Build a factory that builds your defense. Mine resources, feed them down conveyor belts into towers, and hold off monster waves while you hunt the enemy castle across a fogged map. Every run is a new layout, every boss unlocks a new mechanic, and the balance between growing your economy and surviving the night is where the tension lives.

AutoForge
A 2D automation sandbox where the factory runs on Mana and the factory worker is a golem. Build production lines, farm, tame monsters, dig for ore and unlock the world region by region, all while a very persistent defense system tries to take your resources back. Thoughtful building, gentle pixel art, and a mystery about your missing masters.

shapez
A minimalist factory game with no enemies, no timers and no resource limits. Mine simple shapes, cut, paint and stack them into ever stranger patterns, and feed them to the HUB. It starts calm and stays calm, but the puzzles underneath quietly turn into real engineering.

Wireworks
Wireworks is a base-defense roguelike auto-battler where your defenses are a board of modules and wires. Connect signals, tune your weapons and chase synergies that snowball into absurd power, across three areas, bosses and an endless mode. With 200+ items to combine, every run is a new wiring puzzle.

Modulus: Factory Automation
A factory game where you design the parts your factory is made of. Cut, paint and stamp voxel modules, then route belts across sky islands to build elegant production lines. No enemies, no timers, no single right answer: just you, the grid and the quiet satisfaction of a system that works.

Sixty Four
A minimalist clicker that grows into a strange little factory. Start with one machine making cubes, combine them into ever weirder devices, and work toward full automation while an unknown entity sends you messages. Calm to look at, oddly unsettling underneath, and far more hands-on than your average idle game.

Mindustry
Mindustry mixes factory building with tower defense and real-time strategy. You mine, move and refine resources, feed ammo to turrets, hold your core against waves, then build armies and take enemy bases. It is worth playing for that loop of tinkering, defending and expanding.

Widget Inc.
The world ended, and Widgets are all that is left to save it. Build a country-sized factory by hand, then automate it, tier by tier, until a rocket is ready. A laid-back pixel-art factory builder with no combat, no timers and plenty of numbers going up.
