Printa: 3D Printing Tycoon

One gift changed everything: a 3D printer! Now it's up to you to turn ideas into prints, prints into orders, and orders into coins in your piggy bank.

Printa is a cozy tycoon where a kid builds their own 3D printing business at home — and learns how money works along the way.

HOW IT WORKS
• In the morning you take finished orders to school. In the afternoon you come home with the payment and new requests.
• Choose which orders to take: compare the price with the cost of filament and power before saying yes.
• Plan the print queue so your printers keep working while you study and sleep.
• Calibrate machines, replace worn parts and keep them from breaking at the worst moment.
• At the end of the month, the report shows whether you finished in the black and hit your goal.

LEARN BY PLAYING
• Revenue, costs and profit explained with a piggy bank and a cash-flow chart.
• Investing: better machines cost a lot today but earn more tomorrow.
• Depreciation: a used printer is worth less when you sell it.
• Planning: rush orders pay more, but the deadline is tight.

PLENTY TO DO
• 13 kinds of prints: keychains, articulated dinos, rockets, trophies, phone cases and more.
• 6 printers to buy and upgrade, including multicolor machines with up to 4 colors.
• 3 materials (PLA, PETG and TPU) in 6 colors.
• Customers with varied, rush and bulk orders.
• 8 characters to pick from, with your own name in the game.
• Play in portrait or landscape, on phones and tablets.

FAMILY FRIENDLY
• No ads.
• No in-app purchases.
• No data collection: the game works offline and saves only on your device.

Languages: English and Portuguese (Brazil).
