About the Game

START SMALL. BUILD YOUR OWN WAY FORWARD.

Pixel Worker is a pixel-art work-life simulation game about starting with an ordinary job and gradually building your own path through a busy city.

  • MAKE A LIVING

Work at the company, mine for resources, or go fishing to earn a steady income. Complete daily goals, collect useful items, and unlock new ways to grow.

  • GEAR UP AND RAISE PETS

Appraise unidentified equipment, discover random affixes, complete gear sets, and hatch pets that provide bonuses for different jobs and activities.

  • RISK IT FOR SOMETHING BIGGER

Buy rough jade and cut it open step by step, follow market news and trade stocks, or exchange chips at the casino to play slots and blackjack. Every opportunity carries its own risks and rewards.

Switch to Desktop Pet mode and let your tiny worker continue working on your desktop. Check your earnings, inventory, equipment, pets, and work logs whenever you like.
