About Brick by Brick: Tidy Up the Small Town!
Brick by Brick: Tidy Up the Small Town! asks players to collect, sort, and place 18,490 bricks in a first‑person tidy‑up experience. The game can be played solo or with up to five friends online, letting groups rebuild a scattered town together.
Players follow each building’s plan, use unlocked tools such as a magnet, wheel‑barrow, and scaffolding, and watch the town change as piles shrink and walls rise. The pace is relaxed, with no timed input and the ability to save at any moment.
01 / THE GUIDE
Collect and Sort Bricks
The core loop requires locating bricks by shape and colour, then gathering them for construction. Each building’s plan shows which pieces belong where, guiding the search and keeping the task focused.
Sorting reduces visible piles and clears space for new structures, providing a visual cue of progress. The town’s rebuild involves 18,490 bricks in total, giving a clear sense of the overall workload.
- Notice colour clusters to reduce back‑and‑forth movement.
- Group similar shapes before transporting them.
02 / THE GUIDE
Unlockable Building Abilities
Players can unlock abilities that aid construction, such as a magnet for quick collection, a wheel‑barrow for carrying more bricks, and scaffolding for reaching higher spots. Each ability targets a specific part of the workflow.
Using an ability changes how much time is spent on transport or reach, letting players focus more on the building step itself. Abilities are optional tools that become available as the game progresses.
- Try the magnet when bricks are densely packed.
- Use scaffolding early for taller structures.

03 / THE GUIDE
Online Co‑op Mode
The game supports online co‑op for up to five players, allowing friends to collaborate on rebuilding the town. Friends can work side by side on the town and watch the construction progress unfold together.
Co‑op does not alter the collect‑sort‑build loop; each player follows the same steps, but teamwork can speed overall completion by dividing tasks.
- Divide building tasks among players.
- Communicate which bricks each player needs.

Progress Tracking and Saving
Shrinking piles and finished buildings offer a clear visual of town development. Players can see the brick count shrink as walls rise.
Saving is available at any time, ensuring work is not lost between sessions and encouraging return visits without pressure.
- Save after completing each building.
- Watch the piles shrink to gauge remaining work.

Audio and Visual Presentation
Stereo sound and detailed brick textures create an immersive environment as the town evolves, and walking through completed streets highlights the transformation.
The lack of timed input lets players absorb the changing scenery at their own speed, reinforcing the relaxing atmosphere.
- Adjust volume for a calmer experience.
- Explore finished areas to notice detail changes.
