About the Game

A really smart engineer can build robots that do just about everything. Are there any problems that more robots can't solve? You'll find out!



From the creator of Silicon Zeroes and the original Manufactoria, Manufactoria 2022 is a new open-ended puzzle game. Build assembly lines that push robots around and rewrite their strangely paper-based brains. Figure out which robots will work, and send the rest straight into the slagheap!



Solve: Manufactoria has (very slightly) more than a hundred puzzles, but just eight different types of machine to place. How complicated could these robots possibly get? You'll find out :)



Improve: Getting assembly lines working at all is hard enough. If you're looking for more challenge, though, it's time to see if you can make your solutions faster, more compact, more elegant. Get gold medals! Beat your friends, and then make fun of em! Compete for global leaderboards!



Advance: Go from a garage robotics startup to a booming megabusiness. Work with a colorful cast of characters to inflict your creations on an unsuspecting world. It's gonna be a blast!
