Junkyard Builder

Great concept, but it feels unfinished.

Junkyard Builder is a business simulation game developed and published by FreeMind S.A. that turns the overlooked world of scrap collection into an engaging management experience centered on growth, efficiency, and creativity. Instead of presenting junk as useless clutter, the game encourages players to see potential in every discarded machine, broken appliance, and abandoned vehicle. Beginning with a modest scrapyard and limited resources, players gradually establish a profitable recycling operation by gathering salvage, restoring valuable items, and investing in new equipment. The game's concept is simple but surprisingly rewarding, capturing the satisfaction of building a successful enterprise through persistence and smart decision-making rather than fast-paced action. The core gameplay revolves around exploring different locations in search of materials that can be recycled, dismantled, repaired, or sold for profit. Every trip into the field presents opportunities to uncover valuable scrap, rare components, and neglected objects waiting to be given a second life.

This is surprisingly good got to say i don't need the workers so i don't use them i just do everything i need to do after1 10pm game time normally i can do the contracts in about a day game time doing it this way. I'm normally into shop simulator games and this is my first junkyard game so i cant say if its better or worse than others but it certainly given me the taste to find out

I've started and stopped this game many times. It just isn't very fun. With the latest version of tutorial you are forced to buy vehicles like the forklift and and lorry and i have no use for them. that's a lot of money and i can't sell them. But the worse thing has been the same since the game began. once you upgrade your incinerator to the highest level, all you need to do is collect trash bags to make money. it takes any incentive to do anything else away. the 2nd worse thing is inventory control. I had piles of car parts with no way to keep up with what i had. same with the furniture. eventually i just became a garbage and scrap metal dealer.

I enjoy the micro managing, and the grind. But found out that when I drove over a car with the flat bed, I landed on my side. I was nearly full of capacity, and as the timer counted down, 0 then dropped me off of the plane and into the gray pitfall. I then stepped out of the truck, and fell farther. I then saved and reloaded. lost all goods, along with the coin spent on the trip. When I went back into the neighborhood map, all of the loot I lost in the dropped truck had not respawned. The trip into the city was saved with the loot missing, but it did not return with me and the truck.
