About Kaizen: A Factory Story

The year is 1986 and you are David Sugimoto, born and raised in South Bend, Indiana. Thanks to a family friend, you’re headed to Japan for your very first job at Matsuzawa Manufacturing. Japan’s economy is booming. They’re looking for smart, young, motivated business professionals just like you. You’re going to go get to live that 80s executive life and jet-set around the globe, right?…Right? Initially promised a job with the international sales team, you show up at your new job and it isn’t a shiny office. It’s one of Matsuzawa’s old factories in the outskirts of Tokyo. You’re quickly put to work designing automated production lines. Do you have what it takes to survive as a rookie thrust into the fascinating world of factory automation?
From the creators of Opus Magnum, SpaceChem, and Infinifactory comes Kaizen: A Factory Story — another masterfully engineered game.Weld, rivet, cut, and drill the optimal design and share your solutions to build the simplest, fastest, and sleekest items in your factory. Export animated GIFs to show them off. But wait! There’s more! In case you want to take a break from factory life, you can spend your days playing Pachi-Sol, an exciting new pachinko-themed solitaire game.

Sometimes you have to take a step back and come back, its always worth the struggle though
Not recommended Aug 26, 2026
The game itself is... fine. From the amount I've played, the flow is pretty enjoyable: put down devices that will move or rotate the objects and then glue it all together. Problem is, it keeps freezing. Probably Linux, I dunno. But it's not stable enough to continue. I was just finishing up a "fun" (awful) introduction to the "pachinko solitaire" game, and it froze for the second time. In two hours of total game time, that's just not acceptable. Ah well. If the game actually plays for you, maybe you'll like it more than I did?

Amazing Zachtronics-like puzzle game ! Global difficulty is lower, except the very last level which is such an hell !
Recommended Aug 9, 2026
Awesome game! I loved the story and the very concrete puzzles. Compared to other games that can feel abstract, this one is very grounded.

This game is Infinifactory and Opus Magnum badly mashed together. Or possibly Infinifactory and MOLEK-SYNTEZ, but you can lay your own tracks, so Opus Magnum it is. I wish there had been literally any other element to the puzzles that wasn't 'yeah you have all the blocks you need in mostly the shape that you need them, now go make them fit together'. Make us actually have to *assemble* things, dangit. Also the solitaire is weak and arbitrary.
