About the Game

Spidle Tridle is a charming, relaxed, humble little game about resource extraction and refinement on the alien planet Trappist-1d. How long until you earned enough to pay for your ticket back home, to Earth?

  • Build mines and increasingly advanced factories to extract and refine materials

  • Conduct research to boost overall productivity

  • Find or purchase and use items to manipulate factories and the environment

  • Collect artifacts, items with almost magical properties.

… to eventually raise the funds for your ticket home.

Minimalist gameplay, lo-fi visuals, a relaxed atmosphere and the intentional idle-y slowness make this an ideal candidate game for a second screen or background window to switch to occasionally.

100% hand-made by one 100% indie person, this janky little thing has had great and surprising! success on a big web-game platform a couple of years ago, and is now exclusively available on Steam. Enjoy!
