Support & FAQ

SLOP Factory is a satirical mobile game that parodies AI hype, startup culture, and predatory app mechanics. It's an idle/clicker game where you generate meaningless AI products, use shady marketing tactics, and watch your ethics collapse in real-time. Think of it as dark comedy meets tech industry critique.

Currently, SLOP Factory is available exclusively on iOS (iPhone and iPad) via the App Store. An Android version may be considered in the future.

Yes! SLOP Factory is free to download and play. It includes optional in-app purchases (SlopCoins™ and power-ups) with hilariously honest names like "Financial Regret Simulator." All purchases are optional—you can enjoy the full game without spending money.

Your game progress (level, stats, unlocks, etc.) is automatically saved to your device using AsyncStorage. There are no accounts or cloud saves—everything is stored locally. If you delete the app, you'll lose your progress.

• Generate AI Slop: Pick buzzwords and create meaningless products
• Launch & Market: Choose sleazy marketing tactics to boost hype
• Manage Cash Flow: Balance revenue and expenses (or go bankrupt)
• Level Up: Unlock new slop types, tactics, and power-ups
• Grind Achievements: Complete 99 achievements and open daily crates
• Watch Ethics Collapse: Track your descent into corporate villainy

Energy is required to generate new AI slop. It regenerates slowly over time (1 per minute). You can also get energy from hourly/daily crates, leveling up, or purchasing it with SlopCoins™.

SlopCoins™ are the premium currency. You earn small amounts by leveling up and completing achievements, or you can purchase them via in-app purchases. Use them to buy power-ups, energy, or skip timers.

You can open a crate every hour (Hourly Crate) and a better one every 24 hours (Daily Crate). Crates contain random rewards like SlopCoins™, energy, or power-ups. Missing crates doesn't reset the timer—you can always claim your next one when available.

There are 99 achievements spread across categories: Generation, Launch, Money, Stats, Corruption, and Grind. Completing achievements rewards you with SlopCoins™. Check the Achievements screen to track your progress.

Active products drain money every minute (upkeep costs). Revenue from launches takes 5-10 minutes to arrive. If you run out of money, your products go offline and stop generating income. This is the "death spiral" mechanic—manage your cash flow carefully!

At Level 50+, you unlock the "Capitalism" screen with powerful (and morally questionable) investments like "Regulatory Capture" and "Tax Evasion." These cost huge amounts of money but provide major boosts to income and hype.

New slop types and marketing tactics unlock as you level up. The more you play, the more absurd and unethical your options become. Check your current level requirements in the Generate and Launch screens.

Please email support@slopfactory.com with details about the bug, including your device model, iOS version, and steps to reproduce the issue. Screenshots or videos are helpful!

Refunds must be requested through Apple's App Store. Go to your purchase history in the App Store app, find the purchase, and select "Report a Problem." We cannot process refunds directly.

No! The satire targets the tech industry, not players. We're making fun of AI hype, startup culture, and predatory app mechanics—not the people caught in the system. If anything, we're all victims of the same absurdity.

Yes! We plan to add new features, slop types, and quality-of-life improvements based on player feedback. Follow us on Twitter/X or join our Discord for update announcements.
