Hello!

We're holding a closed beta test for “Lazy Witch's Factory,” currently in development!

Scheduled for a limited time from Saturday, January 10, 2026, to Sunday, January 18, 2026, we plan to release it using Steam's “Playtest” feature!

About the Playtest Version

Free to play
Limited number of participants
Save data cannot be transferred to the full version

This is a demo version.

The main purpose of this Playtest version is to verify whether the “basic gameplay loop”—landing on an empty lot and repaying your debt—remains fun and engaging when repeated.

Based on the most popular strategies and choices, we'll refine overly powerful strategies that limit diversity or choices that don't contribute to the game's fun, while also adding more interesting options.

This also serves as a load test for different PC specifications.

As an experiment, we'll also release the adventure part currently in development. Character settings and scenarios may change for the final release. We'd love it if you shared your thoughts on social media!

How to Join the Playtest

Before the playtest begins, a Playtest Participation Button will appear on Lazy Witch's Factory's Steam store page.

Click it, and if slots are available, you'll be able to download the playtest version starting January 10th.

Detailed playtest start times will be announced later on various SNS platforms and this page.

The fastest way to get updates is via the official Lazy Witch's Factory Discord server below.
