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.

Very addictive. I really like using the cart around the junkyard to move things. I wish the truck was easier to steer. I haven't hired an employee yet because I like to do everything myself. I'll get there eventually.
