Rust to Riches

Turn trash into treasure in your own little workshop.

Restore. Swipe to scrub off mud, peel old paint, brush away rust and polish each find until it shines. Every layer needs the right tool.

Appraise. Every clean find gets a value stamp. Most are ordinary, some turn out silver, and a lucky few are solid gold.

Haggle. One buyer comes to the counter for each find. Ask for more or shake on the deal. Watch their face: a smile means you can push, sweat means careful. Push too far and they walk off, and your find goes to the scrap bin.

Grow. Buy better junk, upgrade your sponge, sander, wire brush and polisher, and fill the collection book with 21 finds, from the garage to the kitchen to a one-of-a-kind jukebox.

Automate. Hire up to five robots to do the cleaning while you run the shop. After the jukebox, every silver and gold medal makes your workshop more famous, and fame raises every price.

Reach the million. Find the last gold piece and a million-coin cheque ends the game.
