Hell's Kitchen

Factory management in the underworld

Hell's Kitchen is a factory management game for PC, set in an underworld workshop that manufactures magical item properties. A Dark Lord has put you in charge of the operation. You design the factory floor on a grid, place alchemical stations, and arrange production chains to make properties that end up on weapons, rings, and other magical items.

Space is tight, so the layout matters: stations need to be placed and connected to keep materials moving through production. You also direct the goblins who carry phials of magical liquid between stations. They follow orders, but can drop things, and their commitment is as uncertain as their salary.
