Layer Tycoon: 3D Printer Idle
3D Printing Business Simulator
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Idle tycoon for makers: grow one bedroom 3D printer into a print farm empire. Tune a real slicer, beat the spaghetti, hire a crew and keep earning even offline!
From one 3D printer in your bedroom to a glowing print farm full of machines: Layer Tycoon is a cozy idle tycoon game about running a real 3D printing business.
It's midnight. Your first Benchy turns into spaghetti, the second one comes out perfect, and your very first order arrives. Print it, pack it, hand it to the courier… and keep growing.
A REAL SLICER
Every order wants something different. Set print speed, layer height, walls and infill, and turn supports on for overhangs. Print too fast and spaghetti becomes likely, fine layers take time, strong parts eat filament. A prototype, a figurine and an engineering part each need their own settings.
FROM BEDROOM TO GLOBAL HQ
Seven places to grow: Bedroom, Garage, Workshop, Maker Studio, Print Farm, Metal Lab and Global HQ. Every move unlocks new machines, materials and bigger customers.
UNLOCK NEW PRINTERS
Fast CoreXY, multicolour, resin, industrial FDM and metal SLM printers. Print in PLA, silk PLA, PETG, TPU and resin. Add a filament dryer, a wash & cure station and an AI spaghetti camera.
HIRE A CREW
Apprentices collect prints, packers box them, a shipping clerk calls the courier, operators run the printers and technicians clear the spaghetti. Go from doing everything yourself to managing a busy print factory.
IDLE & OFFLINE EARNINGS
With a team, your print shop keeps producing while you're away. Come back and collect what you earned.
QUIRKY CUSTOMERS
Emma the cosplayer, Jake from the corner café, Dr. Patel the dentist, Old Joe who prototypes everything… Regulars leave reviews and return with big orders when they're happy. Sign company contracts, hit daily goals and race against rush orders.
THE REAL DRAMA OF 3D PRINTING
Greasy beds, filament that soaks up moisture on rainy days, failed prints, washing and UV-curing resin, and the sweet satisfaction of a perfect first layer.

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
Smoother big factories, livelier reviews and a sharper crew!
• Much smoother late game: a busy workshop now draws less than half as many objects per frame, so 30+ printers and a full crew run better on phones and tablets.
• Faster packing in later places: the Packer works through the shelf in batches and gets quicker with every move.
• Reviews feel real: now and then a picky customer gives a perfect part four stars, so your rating moves instead of sitting at 5.0.
• New hires get names in your language, and a big crew no longer ends up with numbered names.
• Storage fix: a rented module can only be handed back once your stock fits without it.
• Fewer interruptions: rating requests, offers and ads keep a few minutes apart, and new players get their first half hour without full-screen ads.
• Faster start-up.
