Factory Town Idle
About
Factory Town Idle is part town builder, part clicker, part idle game, and part management sim. It's great for people who like filling progress bars, optimizing supply chains, and maximizing all their numbers.
Starting with nothing but some trees, you first chop some wood and build housing for some workers, who can then harvest resources for you. Use those resources to unlock new production buildings so you can craft your raw materials into better items, which can be sold for a profit. As towns grow they will need to cultivate their own crops and prospect for ores to keep your economy moving and your townspeople happily supplied with goods.
Over time your town will grow bigger and bigger until you are managing a huge number of buildings, quests, recipes, research, and upgrades. With enough progress you'll be able to build additional towns in new biomes containing unique resources, and trade goods between them to maximize each region's specialties. Advanced steam-powered and even magical technology can be unlocked with enough research.
The game will not punish you for mistakes or cause your town to fail, so you take your time and play whenever you want for long or short sessions. Detailed feedback lets you know where the bottlenecks are so you can fix them and achieve maximum efficiency. And progress happens even when the game is closed, and your rewards will be waiting for you to collect the next time you visit. So sit back, relax, and enjoy your time in the world of Factory Town Idle.

Factory Town Idle reviews and comments
There's an option to remove buildings you previously built that only serves to make you hit yourself in the head if you misclick it since it doesn't refund your resources and allows you to delete essential buildings, snowballing a simple mistake into pure chaos.
Most egregious than that, the auto-assign mechanic, which is supposed to help you deal with the absurd amounts of micromanaging that happens later, actually screws you over in the late game because it's very badly optimized when things start to get too big, even with priorities settings. By the time you realize this, you'll be too deep in the mess to fix things back to the way they were without massive headaches. And for an idle game that's irredeemable.
Until the dev deals with this, spend your time with other games.
