What Makes Scrapyard Tycoon Idle Game Stand Out
You can become an idle scrapyard tycoon! You’ve got the dream job here at your scrapyard, where you’ve got to manage all the machines and work stations to earn the most cash and make as much profit as you can – you are a tycoon after all…! Do you crush cars or recycle them? Upgrade your crane? Expand your warehouse if it’s too full?
This is how the idle scrapyard tycoon game works…Cars are delivered to the car lot, the crane then moves them to the car breaker where workers from removal stations go to remove parts from the cars. These are then moved to the crusher and the spare parts go to the warehouse. Players later unlock crafting stations such as the wheel workstation. They can buy blueprints to craft different items. All to become an idle scrapyard tycoon and become a millionaire capitalist!
You’ve got to keep your customers happy so complete all their orders! Go to the car trader so you can buy old cars and take off spare parts…or do you just take them to the big crusher!
There are different work stations for you to manage. The Wheel Workstation, the Car Body Part Workstation, the Interior Workstation and the Mechanics Workstation. You’ll need to invest here to earn idle cash and boost your profits as a scrapyard tycoon. This is the start of a new empire to become a millionaire! You can earn offline or online.
Crafting is a really important part of the game to earn cash and grow your profit and earnings. Everything from tyres to windows glass to sat navs. You’ve got to buy blueprints to craft all the different car parts in your scrapyard. Buy, sell, trade, earn and profit. It’s all in your hands!!
And don’t forget, you are helping to recycle car parts here so you’re also saving the planet with all this crafting, trading and recycling. Thank you! Someone’s trash could be your treasure – think of the cash and earnings, you genius tycoon!
Your warehouse is important as you need to store your parts here, but you’ll need to make sure the warehouse is upgraded with your profit investments so you have enough room to keep earning more cash to become a millionaire – even a billionaire! You’ve got to grow your capitalist empire – cranes, crushers, car lots, storage and more. This is how to get rich!

Community Insight:
This game is pretty engaging although it could do better with the monetary progression. For example, unlocking something is usually around 135k and selling items from that unlock is about the same as the previous material.
Love the game. Addictive! Cant stop playing, but needs fixing. Our sound has disappeared and hasnt come back. Other than that no complaints. Please fix.
When you bored this game makes time fly.
This would be much better if there were employees that you can hire to automate the processes.
We like this game. Always something to do in the game. There are a lot of options to watch ads. We bought the no adds. Only problem we have so far is the drag race part of the game. We won the 2009-pace car. The game auto upgraded it. Now the game isnt sending us a challenger to race against. So with that said. That part of the game is broken for us. But wont stop us from playing. Hope they will fix. Dont want to start game over to see if that would fix it since we already spent hours on game. But still a good game. Keeps us busy when we have time to waste :).
We love this app however we need to be able to further upgrade there needs to be more availability for certain materials like metal there has been a building that says coming soon since we first got the app almost 4 years ago. Please we are begging you to keep going with your app.
Great overall game, we like watching adds for the rewards, but then adds on top are you guys serious? Are you trying to ruin the game? Uninstalled.
Looks like they still update this game as we took a small break for a bit and saw they have Halloween sales, so hopefully they add season 2 races and more content in the giant warehouse they are teasing next to your junk yard.
Hi guys, Im tom we recently bought an app purchase on your game. We just found out something awesome on your game when we bought it we have infinite roulette will spend thank you so much great job developers.
Games alright, it takes forever to get money to upgrade things. In the off chance you actually want to buy money the amount given for the price its listed as is a bit crazy. It would be nice to be able to rebuild cars instead of just adding a bunch of materials and the car fixes itself. Theres a lot of room for improvement and new features added.
After reloading the game our progress will have to be lost because the game freezes up and you have no choice but to restart it. It used to be fun when it worked.
Great game we been playing for awhile we wish their more space an Im waiting on the buildings coming soon but for time being Im just collecting money till then.
You guy finally fixed the tutorial glitch, thank you.
Just like many others. Great game with way too many adds.
It wouldve been a four star for us but it has way too many ads.
Kind of fun game which we were getting into. But the ads are non stop. Cannot play for more than a minute at a time without random ads popping up. Makes it unplayable.
There are way to many adds now. We watched adds to level up but now they pop up every few moves. Im going to delete this game if it doesnt change.
A fun way to pass time. We really like this game.
The $6.99 is way worth the no adds ! Nice little time waster ! Good game.
This game is awsome but it says we cant download.
We were actually enjoying the game! We had unlocked almost all the stations and we liked it a lot. We used to watch the ads to get perks and that was fine, we wanted to watch the ads. Now we are receiving unwanted ads that we have to watch to continue playing. That killed the game for us. Leaving this review and uninstalling the game. It was good while it lasted.
You cant play this game without watching ads for money, if you dont watch them it will take hours just to upgrade one thing.
Ridiculously slow game. Where is the fun? Looks like it will take week before it becomes something that can be played.
Listen up if your broke this is not the game for you. The system is perfect just pay 6.99 to get rid of ads and speed times and this easily becomes a good time waster while at work.
This is pretty fun to just kick back and waste some time with. Be prepared to watch a lot of commercials at the beginning if you want to earn in game cash to get you going.
The only reason we put 2 stars instead of one is bc it is a great concept. Two slow too upgrade. And the ads are good if we want to get more cash or unlock special features. But the ads popping up for no reason, Ill pass. Deleting the app bc the ads make it unplayable.
Every time we start to play it turns into hours Addicting great game.
Whenever we try to make a piston or bumper the 2 minutes will go by and just restart without giving us a bumper or piston. Happens many times and ruins the game. We love it other than that. Please fix.
The game is good to pass time but youll only make it if you watch ads. We play this at work when the store is empty so it can make for a good pass time but its difficult to play straight thru because of the ads. More ads you watch the more money you make.
We wasnt there so many ads but we dont care about the ads its how you can find out what the scrapyard actually is.
Just started today and already loving it. Love these simulation type games. Already kinda addicted to it.
We love this game so much its the best.
Absolutely no money needed to be spent to just mindlessly play. With no competition involved theres no pay to win. And no excessive payed dlc.
As a mechanic with 45+ years experience, we were immediately interested in this game. Been playing about a week now, and still trying to figure out a few things like why will it say we have no product of a certain item to sell when we can see them in our warehouse and same for raw materials to build them when we can see them in storage. Not super intuitive but thats been PART of the fun for us. Pun intended. Ill try to update this in a month or so if we can figure that out. Havent really left many reviews before but thought this game deserved a shot.
We feel like it would be best if the orders were more associated with what capabilities you have unlocked. That or just keep declining orders that you would not be able to fill unless you are much further in the game or pay to play (which is understandable but, should not be forced onto the player by giving them no other option).
Theres an Advertisement for absolutely everything in this game. If you want to get anywhere, youre going to have to watch countless ads each 30 seconds or longer. Im not sure what it is about these idle games and this formula, but the amount of ads get so crazy that youll find yourself watching more ads than actually playing the game. Dont want to watch the ads? Your progress will be so painstakingly slow that theres no point in even playing. Altogether this gives you the incentive to buy the ad free upgrade. We suppose thats a great business model, but what it does is show everyone that this game is all about the money and less so about the actual game. So what happens when you do buy the ad free upgrade? Well now the game just becomes a tedious click feast. Click the car, click to salvage the car, click the icons that used to be ads, click again for their rewards. Click the workers and click to the button to enable them to work faster for 5 minutes. Repeat those clicks for each and every worker you have that salvages different parts (like one for tires and another for metal). Click the orders, click the crashing stations, click to que up crafts. Oops now the next car is ready so click that and click salvage again… Our point is that there is no break. Youll be tediously clicking on everything and every ad reward over and over again that theres really no time to just enjoy the game. If they would include something like, oh we dont know, an accept all button, that would be nice. Or maybe just give us the perks we paid for? In the end, this game just became tedious and boring. The advertisement driven gameplay is a huge let down and clearly shows where the priorities of the company lie. Steer clear of this wreck.
Is a fun game but there are so many adds. Pretty much a add for everything.
Game has many glitches and issues.
An ad every 5-6 actions is excessive. Game is a fun way to waste time.
Having to watch to many commercials even when not clicked on to gain extra items. You dont click on it and it still plays and you get nothing.
Really enjoyed this game at first, but now the workshops keep freezing when we are crafting items. The times will hit 0 and then automatically restart that same item over and over without putting it into our inventory. Super frustrating.
This Game could be fun if it wasnt such a horrible, trashy, money grab. You cant do anything without having to watch a bunch of ads Too many ads for very little play time.
Absolutely completely addictive addicting and addicted….yup.
This is the first mobile game we have wver truly liked. Its got a very relaxing soundtrack and all you do is manage a scrapyard. Its incredibly soothing. This game is definitely worth the mone.
Needs an automatic crush setting which will crush every car that comes in automatically.
The game is slow to progress but is entertaining to play. Was getting a good feel for it and just logged back on after the latest update and found out we had lost all items in each of our inventories. Lots of work and time went into filling them and have to admit. Im pretty disappointed with the game now.
To many ads. Game is interesting. But hard to play when you constantly get hammered with ads.
We have to tell the game to recycle parts and craft this and that. The only idle we can tell is you get money when offline, but if you leave the game open nothing is happening. Maybe its still too early, but so far not a game Id call idle.
We like the game but we got really far in the game and then we got kicked out of the game and when we reopened the game it was restarted back to the beginning. We deleted the game right after.
The ads are causing the game to crash. Really annoying- please fix this bug.
