Games Like Tolerance

You draw the part by hand. The machine cuts exactly what you drew. That's the problem.

Tolerance is a 1–4 player co-op comedy about running a same-day CNC machine shop like a short-order kitchen. Orders pour in, the clock never stops, and every premium job ends the same way: someone has to trace the part by hand — and the machine will faithfully cut every wobble, hiccup, and panic-jerk in your line. A steady hand earns a PERFECT stamp and up to +50% pay. A shaky one earns a lopsided bracket and three friends asking who did this. Ship it anyway.

There are no assigned roles and no private wallets - one till, one bank, one shift outcome. Whoever grabs the board becomes the dispatcher. Whoever's hauling stock is the runner. Whoever picks up the calipers just volunteered for QC, and whoever's holding the wrench when the intruder walks in is now the bouncer. Meanwhile the shop itself fights back: fires spread, machines jam and break down, the breaker trips under load, and that part someone threw across the floor? It can knock you flat.

Grow the shop from a humble pine woodshop up through oak and steel to titanium - each material a genuinely different beast, not a reskin. There's no level select and no act structure: your BILLS are the difficulty. Every machine you buy raises the daily nut and the ceiling together, one-cut jobs deepen into multi-op chains, and the campaign ends when you land THE AEROSPACE CONTRACT - one perfect titanium part, the tightest tolerance in the game. Bank your crew's cash into seven permanent shop upgrades, work your way up the contract phone, and unlock endless mode when you land it. Prefer to suffer alone? Solo isn't a stripped-down afterthought - it's the tuned baseline. The shop is exactly as unreasonable with one machinist as with four.
