Sludgineers tasks you with industrializing the landscape by collecting pollution, processing it through an expanding refinery, and completing location-based quests. The active incremental loop centers on upgrading equipment and unlocking new areas to access better resources, with offline progression supporting extended play sessions. It appeals to players who enjoy hands-on resource management wrapped in the absurdist premise of turning environmental waste into profit.
About this game
Clean, mine and refine pollution in this active incremental game. Cruise through the countryside earning cash and resources, build a refinery, process materials, upgrade equipment, unlock new areas and complete quests.
