Idle Haystack
by ZIGL Ltd
Media
Tap through randomized haystacks to find hidden needles while hiring farmhands and machinery to dig offline. Collect needles across six rarity tiers, then reset with a permanent multiplier once you've cleared eight stacks—a straightforward prestige loop with no timers or mandatory ads. Best for players who enjoy low-pressure collection games that reward both active play and idle progress.
About this game
There is a needle in this haystack. There is a needle in the next one too.
Tap the stack. Straws fly. Somewhere in there is a needle, and the only way to find out
where is to keep digging.
FIND THE NEEDLE
Every haystack hides one needle somewhere between a third of the way down and the very
bottom. Sometimes you get lucky on the tenth tap. Sometimes you earn every single straw.
HIRE HELP
Farmhands, a barn cat, a seasonal crew and eventually a combine thresher. They keep
digging while the app is closed, for up to eight hours, and they never ask for a break.
COLLECT ELEVEN NEEDLES
From the entirely unremarkable Sewing Needle to the Golden Needle, the Obsidian Needle
and the one they told you about. Six rarity tiers. Better luck pulls better needles.
BALE OUT
Clear eight haystacks and you can burn the whole barn down for a permanent hay multiplier.
You keep the collection. You lose everything else. It is worth it.
ONE THUMB, NO PRESSURE
No timers demanding you come back. No lives. No punishment for putting it down for a week —
the crew will have been busy.
Idle Haystack is free to play and supported by optional ads. Watching one is always your
choice: nothing in the game is gated behind an advert.
