About
Click. Click. Click.
Welcome to FACEMINER, where Every Face Has Value. Your job? Harvest biometric data, upgrade infrastructure, and expand your data processing empire as hard as Planet Earth can take it.
Set entirely within the confines of a vintage operating system, FACEMINER is a narrative-driven incremental management 'click-em-up' that tasks the player with building a planetary-scale biometric processing empire from scratch.
Harvest data, manage software upgrades, and expand your hardware as you rapidly scale your plant’s infrastructure. Ensure profits remain high and avoid bankruptcy (or worse) as you navigate oppressive electricity bills, high-maintenance cooling systems, and crooked politically-enforced carbon offsetting schemes.

Mining alone is no fun! Learn more about your fellow miners and keep up to date with the office gossip through the internal corporate messaging system. Sift through messages to unravel the mysteries – and ultimate plans – of the shadowy creators of the FACEMINER software suite.
Climb the corporate ladder and gradually rise through the ranks as you are promoted from manual data-filtering rookie through to the ultimate harvesting automator as you classify and sell facial data at ever-increasing speeds. The world of data brokering is ruthless, and poor prioritisation can lead to costly mistakes down the line. Do you have what it takes to climb the ranks and become the ultimate FACEMINER?

Featuring a tour-de-force of original 90s-infused tracks by Madwreck . From house to jungle to ambient, the built-in audio player will keep you locked in the zone while you click your way into A.I. history.
Completed the main game? Spend more times in the mines with 'Endless Mode', 'VR Mode' (for full 360 degree immersion), 'Infinite Money Glitch' mode and more.
Remember: Every Face Has Value.

best idle incremental game
good, get on sale. only 2 hours to beat, not super replayable. cool immersive and satisfying though
Interesting visuals and concept. Although the game (apparently) focuses on automation, i enjoyed spending an hour of my life mindlessly clicking on faces xd
I am struggling to put my experience with this game into comprehensible words, so I'll just leave the message I wrote to myself at the end of the game. _________________________________________________________ Message title: "Why did you make me do this..?" _________________________________________________________ Message content: "I thought I needed to make a living. Now I just realize I was addicted. Addicted to the system YOU made. I caused this...? Because of YOU. I HATE YOU. I HATE YOU SO MUCH. THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT. - FACEMINER Administrator" _________________________________________________________
good
I'm usually not one for idler games, but this game was pretty awesome. Cool premise and great soundtrack.
great game for people who like autoclickers the message also came in a suprise
I do love a short narrative game with something to say and a great atmosphere. This does all that and dresses it up in the clothing of an incremental clicker game. It works really well - a nice way to spend a few hours.
very very very fun game but one thing idk why the people in these emails are complaning like you make 1k in 10 seconds why
je sais pas si c'est moi mais je trouve le jeu pas vraiment flippant
