About Crush Yard Tycoon
Crush Yard Tycoon is an idle business game about running a scrap yard: buy a crusher, feed it rusty wrecks, and reinvest the profits into faster machines and a bigger yard.
It is built for short check-ins. Income keeps running while you are away, so every return visit starts with a fuller balance and a decision about which bottleneck to fix next.
How to Play Crush Yard Tycoon
Buy your first crusher, then feed it wrecks to start earning coins.
Reinvest in crusher speed and auto-loaders so the yard earns without you feeding it by hand.
Unlock heavier presses and extra bays for high-value wrecks, and expand into rarer scrap as milestones pass.
Tips & Strategies
- Throughput before real estate. A faster crusher pays for itself sooner than a second bay. Buy capacity only when the first machine is already running flat out.
- Automate before you leave. Auto-loaders are what turn a five-minute session into compounding income. They are the first upgrade worth saving for.
- Fix one bottleneck at a time. Speed, loaders, and yard capacity all cap your income. Spread spending evenly and every one of them stays half-done.
