Order Works

How to play Order Works

Run a factory for 15 shifts and deliver incoming orders before their deadlines run out. Mine ore, process parts, build devices and robots; invest in mines and automation at the right moment. Rush orders and broken-down presses appear as you progress, and every missed order costs reputation. Each shift’s orders can all be met with a verified plan; your earnings set your stars.

You race to fill orders before their final turn arrives. Order Works is a turn-based factory game over 15 shifts, with orders arriving over time. Fall short of the 1-star earnings goal, or run out of reputation, and the shift is lost.

Step by step

  1. The chain: mine ore, process parts (2 ore → 2 parts), build a device (2 parts → 1 device). Shift 5 unlocks build robot (1 device + 2 parts).
  2. Every production step and investment costs 1 turn; delivery is free. Once you have the stock, tap the order card; on the keyboard, the arrow keys pick and Space delivers.
  3. An order that runs out of time is missed and costs 1 of your 3 reputation hearts.
  4. Shift 3 unlocks Mine+, shift 4 unlocks Automation; automation mines ore on its own every turn, and processes parts too at its second level. After that, rush orders and breakdowns start appearing.

Tips

  • Invest early: the sooner you get automation, the more turns it works for you.
  • When the press breaks down, parts can’t be processed for 3 turns and repairs take 1 turn; build devices or stockpile ore in the meantime.
