Bundle With メンヘラリウム
Lazy Witch's Factory is also bundled with メンヘラリウム, a deck-building roguelite chinchiro (dice-gambling) game in which players wager blood against an extremely emotionally volatile girl. Lazy Witch's Factory is set in hell, and between that and メンヘラリウム's blood-wagering matches, this bundle is sure to give players a taste of hell either way.

About Lazy Witch's Factory
Lazy Witch's Factory is a roguelite factory-builder game in which players put cute familiars to work automating a factory, aiming to pay off a mountain of debt before time runs out.
Momoko, the game's protagonist, is a lazy witch who dreamed of passive income but was deceived by a demon and saddled with an enormous debt. There's no telling what will happen if she can't pay it back — so she'll do whatever it takes, even striking pacts with demons, to settle the debt.
Automate a Factory to Earn Funds
Paying off the debt means earning money, and that starts with putting familiars to work delivering items to build up initial capital.
For example, the Mining Goblin can mine items directly from terrain found on the map. Items mined this way can be sent along conveyor belts into a portal to build up resources. Once resources are stockpiled, they can be used to fulfill orders, earning more familiars and funds — steadily expanding what's possible.
Make Pacts With Demons
Paying off such a massive debt through ordinary means alone won't be enough within the time limit, so players can strike pacts with demons to gain a variety of effects, including skills and buffs.
Some of these pacts are distinctly dark, including ones that force employees to work against their will or that involve counterfeiting money — but as long as the debt gets paid off, the means matter little. Still, players should read the fine print carefully, since some pacts carry dangerous side effects.
