shapez is a calm factory-building game: extract shapes from the map, cut, rotate, stack and paint them on conveyor belts and deliver what the hub asks for.
Each level asks for a more complex shape, so your factory keeps growing. This is the official web version with the first levels; the full game is available on Steam. Satisfying and hard to stop.
How to play
- Place extractors on shape deposits.
- Connect them to the hub with conveyor belts.
- Add cutters, rotators, stackers and painters to build the requested shape.
- Deliver enough shapes to unlock the next level.
Controls
- Touch screen: joystick bottom left = move the map, tap or drag = place, hold = delete, pinch = zoom, R = rotate, Q = copy a building, ☰ = menu
- Mouse: place buildings and drag belts
- WASD: move the map
- R: rotate a building
- Q: pick the building under the cursor
- Ctrl + drag: select an area
Tips
- Keep belts tidy — a clear layout is easier to extend.
- Build in modules so you can copy parts later.
- Read the tutorial hints in the corner on your first levels.
