Find the Needle in Barn

Step into a sunlit barn, take up your rake and discover the small treasures hidden in a mountain of hay. Find the Needle in Barn is an offline, single-player search game about patience, careful observation and building a better way to work. Explore 10 search levels set across three distinct barn environments: Clover Farm, Old Stone Granary and Copper Ridge Depot. Part the straw to uncover golden needles, confirm each discovery and watch your collection progress. Found needles stay on the ground with a blue check, so you can distinguish discoveries already counted from the ones still hidden. Move individual loose stalks, gather hay into your carry bag and unload it at the weighing scales. Earn coins through hay sales and discoveries, then improve your rake, field vacuum, metal detector and carrying capacity. Follow the detector's changing signal as you search for the remaining needles. Build up to three automatic sifters in each level to process and sell nearby hay while you continue exploring. Choose where to place them and balance new equipment against your next upgrade. Enjoy first-person exploration, warm countryside surroundings, game-specific music and action sounds. Your progress is saved locally, and you can return to earlier searches as your tools improve. Play offline with keyboard and mouse or an Xbox controller. No online account, multiplayer connection, advertisements or real-money purchases are required.
