About This Game

⚙️ Scrapping Simulator

A low-poly first-person simulator set in a stylised Australian take on the global e-waste crisis.

Step into the steel-capped boots of an Aussie E-Waste Scrapper.

Hunt down discarded electronics, dismantle them piece-by-piece, and extract valuable materials like Copper, Silver, and Gold, along with lower-value materials such as Iron, Aluminium, Brass, and Plastic.

Sell your scrap for cash, manage your expenses and fluctuating market prices, and expand your operation through smart investments and upgrades.

Every playthrough is shaped by your choices and deep dynamic systems: daily e-waste variety, weather-affected solar power, hundreds of component combinations inside E-Waste, and ever-changing market prices.

A New Game includes a short guided tutorial (10-15 minutes) on Day 1 where time is frozen and energy is capped. Use this time to explore and learn the systems at your own pace. In-game manuals are also available for deeper dives into mechanics.

Best suited for players who enjoy hands-on tasks, meaningful progression, and managing real-world inspired challenges.

Important Clarification:

This is a realism-inspired simulator, not a sandbox destruction game. While dismantling electronics is a core detailed part of the experience, the game also includes bills, financial management, consequences to actions, and many interconnected systems. These elements seem to catch some players off-guard. If you're looking for a carefree sandbox game with no responsibilities, consequences or progression, this may not be the game for you. An Endless Sandbox Mode is not currently planned.

🛠️ Features

🔍 Scavenge & Salvage

Head out early each morning to secure the best finds before rival scrappers beat you to them. Not all junk is worth your time, learning what to take (and what to leave behind) is part of the strategy. Pull Items apart down to the last Screw and gather the Raw Materials hidden inside.

📈 Watch the Market

Track fluctuating prices on your in-game PC. Sell raw or refined metals at the Scrap Yard, offload low-tier electronics at the Pawn Shop to free up time and storage for higher-value targets. Timing and focus can directly impact your profits.

🛒 Upgrade Your Tools

Visit the Hardware Store to purchase better tools to speed up disassembly, solar panels to reduce utility costs & provide idle income, improved item transport options, expanded external storage, and other efficiency-focused upgrades. Spend wisely, not every upgrade provides immediate returns, managing your responsibilities alongside Upgrade purchases is essential.

🔥 Smelt & Refine

In the mid-to-late game, reinvest your profits into a Furnace Set, Crucible, and Ingot Moulds to turn low-value raw Base Metals into high-value ingots. Further into the late game, unlock the Chemical Set to refine pure Gold and Silver for premium returns.

The Furnace & Chemical Sets as glamorous as they sound, do not start producing Ingots out of thin air. These systems take Valuable Raw Metals you've hopefully been accumulating for this very moment, to smelt & refine them into more valuable Ingots.

💪 Level Up & Unlock Perks

Earn XP in Disassembling, Trading, and Scavenging to level-up and gain perk points across three distinct skill trees. Specialise your playstyle and refine your strategy to maximise productivity and long-term profit.

🧠 Developer’s Note:

Scrapping Simulator is a stylised exaggeration of today’s throwaway culture. It’s about uncovering value in the forgotten. Where some see trash on the curb, others see opportunity, raw materials waiting to be reclaimed.

This is a simulator built on freedom, consequence, and discovery. There is no single “correct” path, only the one you carve out for yourself.
