About the Game

Rust & Shine is a cozy incremental restoration game. Mystery antiques arrive buried in rust — clean them, identify them, sell them, and grow a one-man bench into an automated workshop.


🧽 CLEAN
Wire brush, water gun, sandblaster. Strip the corrosion layer by layer until the item catches the light. Every item is hidden until it's clean — most are trinkets, some are treasures, and once in a while the ugliest lump in the crate comes up Legendary.

💰 SELL & UPGRADE
Restored pieces turn into cash. Cash turns into stronger tools, better suppliers with rarer crates, and new stations for the workshop floor.

🤖 AUTOMATE
Unlock repair-bots that feed, clean, and sell without you. Watch the workshop run itself while the money climbs — or keep the rarest pieces on your own bench, restored by hand.

📋 TAKE CONTRACTS
Quota jobs on tight deadlines. Bounties on specific finds. High-paying commissions that demand a flawless restore. Take the safe work or bet on the big jobs.

🏛️ RELOCATE & PRESTIGE
Outgrow your workshop and move to a grander one. Spend Renown on permanent skills that reshape your playstyle — slow and cozy, fully automated, or Legendary-hunting. Your Heirloom Gallery keeps every treasure you've ever restored, forever.
