Minami Co.: Idle Factory

Build a safety-pin factory with a family of unlikely entrepreneurs in this pixel-art idle factory game. Kasumi Minami works at an Akihabara maid café until she inherits her father's workshop. With her level-headed mom Shiori, inventor sister Rin and trend-chasing sister Yuzu, a tiny factory becomes the setting for a family business comedy. MAKE PINS. FILL THE TRAY. SHIP. Turn the crank, watch wire become safety pins and ship your growing stock. Chain shipments into combos to raise the sale price. Put your earnings into better machines and turn a hand-cranked workshop into an automated factory. 20 PIN MODELS. UP TO FOUR PRODUCTION LINES. Hearts, bunnies, omelet rice, lucky cats and nigiri sushi: unlock unusual pin models as the story unfolds. Watch world trends, retool your lines and decide which designs to produce next. UPGRADE WITH UNUSUAL INVENTIONS Invest in the Magic Motor, Tsundere Cutter and Bottomless Serving Tray. Research new improvements and keep building with uncapped machine upgrades. Each family member brings a different skill to the business. TURN GOLDEN PINS INTO OPPORTUNITY Spot a golden pin on the belt and ship it to collect rare materials. Spend those materials on a Gold Rush to send sale prices soaring. FROM A WORKSHOP TO A PLANET OF PINS Follow an eight-episode story with expressive pixel-art family portraits. Grow beyond the little workshop toward an entire planet made of safety pins. Complete it to unlock New Game+ and stack permanent bonuses for the next, bigger planet. GROW AT YOUR OWN PACE Choose new floors and walls to make the factory your own. Collect earnings based on your time away, then return to shipping, research and upgrades. Enjoy a quick production session or settle in to plan your next expansion.
