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 core gameplay revolves around exploring different locations in search of materials that can be recycled, dismantled, repaired, or sold for profit.

Buffing/metallic renovation/car painting and renovation needs more variety.2 found this helpful
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 out1 found this helpful
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.1 found this helpful
