What Makes Little Big Workshop Stand Out
Imagine a magical factory, appearing right in your living room. A carefully planned masterpiece, where diligent workers throw together anything customers want. Rubber ducks and dressers, drones and electric guitars, scooters and other wonderful goods can be created from many different materials and sold for hard cash – cash you invest right back into your factory to get more machines, more workers and grow your business. In Little Big Workshop you become a factory tycoon!
Real factories – made FUN
You are the Big Boss and it’s time to take charge of your very own tabletop factory. Organize the factory floor, manage your workers, purchase machinery, and design efficient production lines – all within the time-limit and to your client's satisfaction!
An open-ended sandbox-experience
Take it easy, it’s a sandbox-experience where you think, ponder and poke at things until you get it to work the way you’d like. Supply products to clients and an ever-changing market, as you produce over 50 unique product types, built from multiple parts and pieces – all of which can be created with different materials and production methods. No two factories should ever look the same.
Tiny hands, big dreams
Start out with just a small workshop and expand to a desk-filling factory. Unlock ever fancier machines, add even more production methods, and most of all, more room. Soon enough you’ll be running multiple production lines, producing hundreds of advanced products each day, and watching with joy as your cute workers do the actual work.
Features:
- Varying industries and a wide range of products
- Focus on practical problems, not on values, economics, or logistics
- Organize all steps of the production on a blueprint
- Factories grow as you unlock more desk space
- Fully simulated Day/Night-cycle
- Take care of your workers! Work them too hard and they drop like flies
- Cute model-town art-style
This Simulation game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

Community Insight:
Been waiting years for the app version of your game, bought it on pc and console we love it so much its one of our favorite games. Well worth ten dollars youll spend countless hours filling orders and building fun product.
Periodically all employees will just stop working, perhaps its because a storage zone is full (no indication until one selects that zone) or because no work station is linked (although linking is unclear in its significance or mechanic). There is a help screen with some explanations which are frustratingly incomplete. Based on other reviews, it looks like this might be a worthwhile purchase if youve played the game on other devices, not so much for a first-time player.
The learning curve is a little steeper than most games, but a little expanded tutorial would solve that. At the current price of $1, it is an amazing game! Worth probably $10. We.
We love the premise of the game, but we have had to start over multiple times. The workers will make something at a station and just leave it there. That means nothing else can be built on it. They also sometimes just refuse to work and we can't find a reason. Hopefully, there will be improvements soon because this could be a really amazing game without the bugs.
Fun game, however there is at least one bug that greatly hinders gameplay. A machine of ours got bugged when in queue for a repair. It hasnt been repaired for several in game days, and all the other options for it are ghosted out because it thinks its going to get a repair. This will mess up your production- we were pretty early in and didnt have a lot of money yet so we had to restart. Hopefully this gets fixed.
Game has a consistent problem of crashing out when expanding the size of our base. Crashes almost every time when we try and place a door and pay for it.
