![]() Each request, bar the ‘story’ missions, has a timer – once the timer runs out, the request vanishes and is subsequently replaced with another order. Requests come in via your phone within Car Mechanic Simulator, although the consumers seem to be a little impatient in waiting for a response. Realistic tools for a realistic simulator… So, let’s take a look at these ‘exciting’ tasks… I love breaking things down in order to see not only why they’re broke, but also how and why they work in the first place, Car Mechanic Simulator is brilliant at doing this with all of the tools and mechanics you have in place.Īs such, the gameplay actually breaks down into various segments – Requests and diagnostic tests, Manual investigation and problem-solving, Ordering parts and fitting them, and the various other things you can do in the world of Car Mechanics. I’m a massive puzzle fan with a keen interest in problem solving and micromanagement – most likely stemming from my previous roles in Technical and Application support for various big companies. Not to mention the more advanced and adventurous parts of the job, such as buying cars in auction, digging through junkyards for spare parts, competing in races and taking to the test track in order to see just how messed up the latest job really is!įor me, I absolutely love games like this. Everything from receiving and accepting the maintenance request, diagnosing the trouble components, purchasing new parts, and then stripping down and repairing the vehicle, is within your job description. ![]() It’s an addictive and strangely satisfying game which I feel everyone will find some kind of enjoyment with.Ĭar Mechanic Simulator is all about simulating the role of a mechanic, who works on cars – in case you hadn’t noticed. Seriously though, Car Mechanic Simulator is a game in which you service cars whilst expanding your arsenal of tools and the size of your garage as you move towards flipping over cars for massive profits and even building your own cars from (almost) scratch. Okay… Maybe the story isn’t as sinister or dramatic as that, but how cool does that sound?!? Simulation games don’t have to be monotonous or ‘boring’, you can invent your own reasons for doing what you’re doing and build on that with your imagination. With your wrench in one hand and the threatening letter in another, you must ensure you deliver your best performance with every patron should you wish your wife and children to remain safe and alive. A small sheet of paper is all that guides you, “Tend to the customers, fix their vehicles, make money, then buy and flip your own vehicles – and your family will be safe”. You must now repay a debt you owe via the skills of your trade – fixing and flipping vehicles. It turns out you’ve been taken hostage, made prisoner within a mechanic’s workshop in exchange for the safety of your family. Much to your surprise, you’ve awoken within a garage, not a small one you see attached to the side of a house, but one which services and tests motor vehicles for paying visitors – just what is this? Why are you here? After what seems like an eternity, you find the bringer of light and push its switch with a sense of urgency, watching as the fluorescent lights flicker and gradually unveil your surroundings. You awaken in a dark room, the smell of oil and grease fills the air making it hard to breathe as you frantically search for a light switch to illuminate this foreign location. Sure, some people will be instantly put off due to the nature of the niche genre, but I encourage you to read on as this is one of the most addictive and satisfying games you’ll find which also sneakily teaches you at the same time. ![]() ![]() As such, I prepared myself for many sleepless nights and long play-sessions with the latest simulator game in my library, Car Mechanic Simulator.ĭeveloped by Red Dot Games and published by PlayWay, the authenticity and realism of Car Mechanic Simulator exceeded my expectations, delivering us an ‘edutainment’ title which is borderline as close to the real thing without getting your hands dirty – just as we saw with the brilliant Train Sim World previously. I know this as it’s happened previously with titles such as Train Sim World, Airport Simulator 2019, Construction Simulator 2 – US Edition, and Fishing Sim World. As soon as I spot the word ‘Simulator’ within the title of a game, I know it’ll be a game I end up loving and/or losing hours to, as I learn the ropes of performing a real job.
