Salvage Junkies

WELCOME TO THE SCRAP COAST Salvage Junkies is a tactile junkyard adventure where you find forgotten machines, tear them apart piece by piece, sort what you recover, sell the good stuff, and turn a rundown yard into a scrap empire. FIND IT. TEAR IT APART. SORT IT. CASH IT IN. Every salvage lot is a multi-stage teardown. Don't just tap a button and watch a progress bar. Get your hands dirty. • Loosen screws by circling your finger • Pull fasteners out • Snip wires • Pull panels and parts free • Blow dust away with your real mouth • Wipe grime from hidden components • Shake loose stubborn pieces • Pick out valuable parts • Crank mechanisms with real spin and momentum • Crack safes with proximity haptics • Unlock keypads and mechanisms • Sort every recovered material into the right bin Different junk demands different tools and interactions. A battered appliance might be hiding valuable parts. A wrecked machine might be worth far more once you've stripped it down properly. And when you're done? SELL IT. BUILD YOUR YARD Turn your earnings into a working salvage operation. Expand your yard. Unlock new ground. Build machines. Upgrade them. Hire crews. Improve your processing. Increase your output. Your yard isn't just a menu full of numbers. Gantry cranes move scrap. Conveyors carry actual materials. Machines become more powerful as you upgrade them. Scrap piles grow with your lifetime salvage. At the highest tiers, your machinery visibly comes alive as it overclocks. EXPLORE THE SCRAP COAST There's more beyond Lowtide. Travel between three distinct towns: LOWTIDE — Your home yard and the heart of the operation. HIGHPOINT — A bigger city with new people, new opportunities, and a different side of the salvage trade. TROLLHOLM — A northern fjord town built around craftsmanship, heavy industry, and some very unusual locals. Travel by ferry, discover new locations, find new lots, and uncover what connects the towns together. MEET THE JUNKIES The Scrap Coast is full of people with their own businesses, personalities, secrets, and opinions. Meet Scraps, Beavis, Rocco, Oliver, Banjo, Riley, Astrid, Bjarne, Kåre, Celeste, Victor, and more. Visit their shops. Talk to them. Buy, sell, upgrade, trade, and listen carefully. Because people talk. BUILD YOUR GOSSIP DOSSIERS Every character has a story. As you talk to locals and hear things from one character about another, you gradually build dossiers filled with facts, rumors, relationships, habits, history, and hidden details. The more you explore, the more the Scrap Coast starts to connect. COLLECT THE ODD ONES Not everything valuable belongs in a material bin. Some things are simply… weird. Keep your strangest finds in your Odd Drawer and bring them to Oliver's Curiosities. Discover unusual objects hidden among the junk and figure out what they're worth. Then there's the Crusher. MERGE. CRUSH. PROFIT. Take scrap to the crusher, match pieces, build chains, and turn the right combinations into valuable materials. AND THERE'S ALWAYS ANOTHER LOT Work your way through 50+ salvage lots spread across garages, back rooms, wheels, docks, airfields, and more. Each lot has its own junk, teardown sequence, payout, and surprises. Some jobs are quick. Some are filthy. Some are absolutely not worth what the previous owner claimed. And some contain something you didn't expect to find. THE SCRAP COAST IS YOURS TO PICK APART. Salvage Junkies is built around satisfying interactions, exploration, progression, characters, and the simple joy of taking something completely wrecked and finding out what's inside. Find it. Strip it. Sort it. Sell it. Upgrade. Explore. Repeat. Welcome to the yard.
