Industrialist

Industrialist is a factory-building and industrial simulation game on Roblox by Mamytema Studios, inspired by Factorio, Mindustry, and other automation games. With 46.2 million visits, 268K+ favorites, and 2,000-5,000 concurrent players, it holds a 94.9% approval rating - one of the highest in the factory and tycoon genre on Roblox. Currently in Beta v1.0, it is one of the most complex player-built systems games available on the platform.

Players design, build, and optimize automated production lines using a modular machine system. The game's own description warns of a steep learning curve and recommends playing with friends to share discoveries:

• 🏠 Production lines built from machines like Advanced Assemblers, Coal Drills, and Copper Drills
• 🏠 Pollution management - industrial activity generates pollution that must be controlled via Scrubbers
• 🏠 Research Points (RP) economy - fund technology unlocks and new machine tiers
• 🏠 Modular diesel engines with configurable torque ratings
• 🏠 Multiplayer factory collaboration with up to 20 players per server
• 🏠 Seasonal events including Christmas and April Fools content

The pollution system adds genuine strategic tension: ignoring it triggers the "Forlorn Hope" badge at 200%+ pollution, while managing it efficiently enough to unlock the Scrubber below 4% earns the "Pollution? Never heard of it" badge. An 89-badge achievement system documents virtually every milestone in the factory's lifecycle, from rolling copper into wire to building tier-III pipes.

Industrialist sits in the same space as Roblox factory and automation games but with substantially more mechanical depth than typical tycoon titles. A comprehensive Fandom wiki at industrialist.fandom.com documents all machines, materials, and badge requirements.
