Idle Haystack

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.
