Woodshop Simulator: ENDGRAIN

A hands-on woodshop simulator that never resets. Sort strips to match the order, glue six into a board, merge boards up to exhibition grade, and sell at the market. An incremental crafting game: the shop only grows. SORT. GLUE. MERGE. BUILD. The saw cuts strips of real wood. Tap a strip, then a lane. Six to a lane, and the clamps take it from there. Orders ask for a pattern (solid, stripe, mirror) and when the shelf holds the right boards, you build. No levels. No lives. Nothing to fail. Just a shop with work to do. MERGE BETTER BOARDS Two common boards with the same pattern become one figured board. Two figured boards become an exhibition board. Better work brings better customers. A CUTTING BOARD THAT NEVER STOPS GROWING Every build sheds offcuts, and every offcut is kept. Your first cutting board is the size of a coaster. Later it's a tennis court. Then Central Park. Eventually the whole planet, end grain up. Then it keeps going. NOTHING RESETS. EVER. There is no prestige button. No wipe, no run that ends and takes everything with it. The shop only grows. Every board you finish goes into the gallery, a flip book of everything you've built, and no two are alike. REAL WOOD, READ BY ITS GRAIN Over twenty species, from oak and maple to zebrawood, purpleheart and ebony, each with its own field notes. Reclaimed barn wood fits any slot. Some woods can't be bought at all. They have to be earned. Go deep enough and you'll start finding fossils. A YEAR THAT MOVES WHEN YOU DO The calendar turns with the boards you build, not the clock. Nothing piles up while you're away, and nothing is lost. Play for five minutes or an hour. The shop opens again in the morning. WORK THE MARKET When the market opens, build and sell what you can before it closes. Coins buy racks, clamps and shelf space. The lumber yard stocks whichever species you're short on. FREE TO DOWNLOAD ENDGRAIN includes optional purchases. - Business License: one permanent purchase. It opens more shelf slots and rack lanes for you to build out, doubles the rewards from every market, hangs a professional sign, includes a golden offcut, unlocks the coin exchange, and removes all advertising. - Voucher packs: optional consumables for lumber and shop supplies. You earn vouchers as you play, and you never have to buy them. - Advertising: one rewarded video you can choose to watch at a market close, to double that market's vouchers. From Year Two, if you turn down the Business License at the turn of the year, one full-screen ad plays. That's all the advertising there is. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No account. No login. Your shop save stays on your device. The game sends anonymous play data so it can be improved, and you can switch that off in the Back Office. Made by one person who also makes things from wood. Nothing fancy. Nothing wasted.
