About the Game

An old factory. A mountain of discarded hardware. Somewhere inside, a wallet could change your shift.

Crypto in a Haystack is a first-person salvage game for one to four players. Pull devices from the heap, scan hardware wallets for fictional BiteCoin, and decide what to do with the rest. Small finds help you improve your reader and carrying gear; larger finds can fund machines the whole team uses.



Build a working factory. Sort and process the growing pile with shared production lines and drones. Find GPUs for a mining workbench, recover collectible discs, and search locked rooms for clues and valuable equipment.



Keep an eye on the factory. Thieves can slip in from the dark, turning a quiet shift into a moving fight. Your teammates can help defend the pile—and friendly fire can make a bad night even worse.





Play solo or cooperate online with up to three friends. Clear the heap piece by piece and see what was hiding inside it. All coins and wallets in the game are fictional; there is no real cryptocurrency or real-money trading.
