I am really busy visiting family today, so I probably won't have time to post a full review. Please check the introduction below the countdown timer for details of the game, plus my original conclusion from several years ago below. Thank you.

HAPPY NEW YEAR to All, I hope we all have a happy and successful new year.

In Brief:
Toy Factory was originally given away via Alawar games on the 31st January 2016 where it received a positive 46% from 359 votes with 11 comments which you can see HERE. It was also given away on the 5th October 2019 where it received a positive 82% from 22 votes with 5 comments which you can see HERE


You can see a couple of full reviews of the game via Gamezebo HERE and 148Apps HERE.
My Conclusion from when this was originally given away almost seven years ago:
If you like Time Management games this should be okay to download. It seems like an entry level game that's rather weak in places, but for aficionado's of TM games it's another one to add to your library though it may be too easy for those who consider themselves expert TM game players. Still, it's cute and has all the right elements to make for a family oriented game, especially if you have younger children, who will love the cartoon like graphics.
I don't particularly like TM games, but I didn't find this game as nerve wracking as some TM games I've played and was even able to get three gold stars in each of the levels I played, (though I did choose the easiest mode, of which there are three); so, if you are not usually a lover of TM games due to their usual stress or tunnel syndrome inducing game play this may be one of those exceptions that you may actually enjoy playing. The only way to find out is to download and boot up! :)

Notes on Security
I scanned a zipped copy of the installed game using Virus Total and as usual with Toomky Games it found the same 3 hits i.e VBA32, Jiangmin & BitDefenderTheta from 64 antimalware engines. These three are nearly always associated with Toomky Games compared to most better known and more reliable antimalware engines, so it's almost certainly a false positive.

You can see the results of the scan HERE

Whiterabbit-uk,

The downloaded executable 'may' include some low level adware that opens your browser to Toomky's home page after the game has installed and usually places some shortcuts onto your desktop; these can be safely deleted once the game has installed.

The installation does NOT inject any malware into your system. When your browser is opened to Toomky Games home page following the games installation, it earns Toomky Games some money, part of which is given to the developer for allowing the game to be given away for free. The giveaway version of Toomky games version has had most of the adware disabled that is usually included with games from all free games sites .

If you're still not convinced of the games efficacy and want to be absolutely sure that the game is safe to install, please use a sandbox program to check that the game is safe to install before installing it to your C drive or other drives on your computer (assuming you have more than one drive). Personally I've never had any issues with Toomky games.

There are free sandbox programs such as Sanboxie, GeSWall, BitBox, Windows Sandbox, Bufferzone (a six month commercial license was given away via the applications side of the project back in December 2009 HERE), Shadowzone, as well as others. (You'll find them all on the same page from Techwhoop.

Ever wonder where Santa Claus orders his Christmas presents for children? Turns out that Wilma uncle has moved and left his toy workshop for Wilma. Who could have thought that this small toy factory used to provide Santa with toys and cant meet the quota without him? So you have to help Wilma breathe new life into the toy factory in an amusing time management game with stylish cartoon graphics. Guide her as she goes from running a small, family-owned shop to operating the very mega-plant owned by St. Nick himself over 60 levels in story mode and an endless mode. Reindeer arrive on bikes to your shop with elf helpers. You have to click & drag the bike to an open slot at the bottom and also click and drag the elves to a table who then tell you the toys they want. You need to make toys for the reindeer (which are shown as icons) and click the correct toy machine to produce the toys. When they are finished being made, you have to deliver the toys to the reindeer. While the elves are sitting and waiting you can make money if you serve them food and drinks they desire but is not required. Some of the reindeer leave trash and must be removed before the next reindeer arrives. The Reindeer themselves become impatient, some quicker than others and some arrive faster than others due to old elves so you will want to get the toys to them as soon as possible in proper order. If a machine breaks down you must repair it quickly because a broken machine produces no toys, and sometimes the elves get into a fight and you must click on the table to break it up or you won't get a tip. As you progress, you will be able to purchase upgrades such as musicians. Different elves like different music, if the elves like the music, they will tip better. The music in the game may not appeal to most being tecno as its not christmas type music but can be turned off. Happy New Year.

Happy New Year Everyone! GGOTD starts of the New Year presenting Toy Factory which is a Christmas themed time management simulation.

The story revolves around Wilma who inherits her uncles toy factory and then 2 reindeers show up at the factory looking for her uncle only for Wilma to tell her the story etc. They want a new toy maker and Wilma Promises to not let them down.

The reindeers start you off on the tutorial level explaining the concepts of the game. You have customers that are on the conveyor belt and have to drag them to the candy cane area and seat them at the table. They all have different needs and so forth.

One thing I noticed was that you also had to tend to the reindeers as well as they needed toys. Take to long to serve your customers and they get impatient. You will find the faster you are the more you are tipped by the customers.

This game has in game achievements to track how well you are playing the game. So far I've earned the Happy Guest achievement which meant I was so quick and they left a high tip.

The games difficulty is so and so. By the time you complete the tutorial level the game starts getting more complex and challenging. But the beginning of the game gives you all you need to know to play so I suggest paying close attention to it.

Even though the game has a silly story line at the beginning I still managed to enjoy playing the game. It's perfect for families and all ages.

Give this game a try and see what you think, you might like it and it certainly continues the wintery theme we've seen with the weekend GOTD games.

sailorbear510 aka Jason, and pay attention to the upgrades at the beginning of the levels located on the bottom bar which you can use the money you earned previously such as for making toys or drinks faster or being able to make 2 at once or making them less impatient. This is the way to do better in the game.

This is a fun time management game. Works on windows 11 . There are three levels of difficulty. You have to deliver the toys to the reindeer in a certain amount of time. There is a tutorial which I think can be skipped if necessary. Well worth trying.
