About the Game

Grind Up is a first-person simulation game with pixel graphics. Produce, collect, grind items, earn money, upgrade your grinder, and play strategically under time pressure. Start working toward your first million dollars.

Collect the items dropped from the production machine and toss them into the grinder, collect the cash, and get rich.

Upgrade your grinder, increase your production capacity, and obtain more valuable items. Each upgrade lets you earn more money and reach your fortune faster.

Every morning your debt grows heavier, every morning the opportunities get bigger. Balance your finances, increase your income, and keep your boss calm. If you postpone your debts too much, you’ll get fired!

Watch your earnings grow as you smoke cigars, reward yourself… and no, smoking cigars won’t actually speed up your work.

Your goal is to reach one million dollars. Increase your income, manage your debts, and achieve your fortune. Remember: reaching your first $100,000 is harder than reaching your first million.
