About This Game

A first-person garage sim built entirely around the repair itself. Each car is a puzzle: the work order names a fault, the vehicle comes apart to individual parts in a set sequence, broken pieces get replaced or fixed, then the whole thing goes back together. Money and experience feed a slow climb through new tools, a bigger garage, and the buy-fix-flip loop of auctions, junkyards, and barn finds, where a rusted shell can become a sellable restoration.

Reviews consistently call the core loop methodical and genuinely satisfying for car enthusiasts, with the rebuild process its real reward. The recurring caveat is the friction around it: dense menus, long parts lists, a steep unguided start, and a diagnose-and-repair cycle that turns repetitive over time. Rated Everyone and on PS Plus Extra, it suits tinkerers who want depth and patience, not anyone here for actual racing.
