Overview
Botlings is a fresh take on the factory automation genre, developed by Fancy Raven Games and published by Pixel Doors. Released on October 9, 2026, this sandbox-driven title blends resource management, base building, and a dash of artificial intelligence.
The core twist? Your workers are also your machines.
You lead a swarm of mindless robots that walk forward, and you must guide them through turners, splitters, and bridges to create a thriving automated factory.
Highlights
- Workers as Buildings: Transform your robots into production buildings, making every unit dual-purpose.
- Lemmings-Style Movement: Direct forward-walking robots through a variety of pathing tools, adding a puzzle-like layer to the automation.
- Multiplayer and Achievements: Enjoy the game with friends via multiplayer support, and unlock Steam achievements as you optimize your factory.
Who It's For
If you enjoy automation games like Factorio or Satisfactory but crave a more whimsical, puzzle-oriented approach, Botlings is right up your alley. The Lemmings-inspired movement and the sentience theme will appeal to players who like to experiment with emergent systems and watch their creations come to life.
It's also a great pick for sandbox enthusiasts who love tinkering with base layouts and resource flows.
