I have worked on vehicles for more than 40 years. I am a certified master tech, for what that is worth here. I found this game and it was on sale for only a few dollars so I bought it. I wasn't expecting much. All in all, it is a very good game, IMHO. The details in the engine and vehicles are pretty accurate to the real thing in many ways. The game leaves out the frustration of finding the bolts, finding a way to get to the bolts, the proper tool to get the bolt out, the dirt and rust that falls in your face, ears and eyes. It leaves out the torque specs and other tedious things that would run people off while leaving enough to make it somewhat lifelike and fun. This is actually a game I enjoy playing. I get outdone and tired of working on vehicles in real life at times but I spend a bit of time in the game enjoying tearing engines down and fixing them without all the frustrating realistic parts of fixing cars. I could nitpick this game to death with all the stuff they leave out and how simple it makes working on cars look but it is a game, meant to be fun, not necessarily realistic. I think the devs found a way to make a game that is real enough yet still fun.

An amazing stress-reliever that stops just short of true realismIf you are looking for a sim game to wind down after a long day, this is perfect. The gameplay loop is very addictive and relaxing. That being said, the mechanics are simplified compared to real-world wrenching. For instance, when doing a timing job, you don't have to worry about top dead center (TDC) or use specialized tools like timing locking rods/pins to hold the engine position. Adding details like piston alignment during assembly would have made it perfect. Highly recommended, but don't expect a 1:1 real life tutorial.

Pretty cool game. As the titel suggests it is a pure mechanic game, a lot of detail when it comes to car parts. What I miss most is the social perspective - I haven't met a single person in this game. In other words, the game has absolutely no atmosphere. It is completely dead. No family that walks into your shop and wants their car repaired before the holiday, no handyman with his "gooddamn car broke down just now", no car enthusiast who recently bought that piece of junk and wants you to build his dreamcar out of it. Why errect a gas station when no people walk in, why a car wash when nobody lives on the planet? I feel that I would have much more motivation when the work I do means something to someone. That is the biggest drawback of this game and I think and it would have profited most from it.

*Automotive Mechanic Here* I used this game as a "helper" throughout my apprentiship as a 310s Automotive Service Technician now I have completed my apprentiship & I am newly licensed I would say this game did help to get a better undertsanding on how to service automotive vehicles.

Great game! I knew nothing about fixing cars when I started, and now I can navigate what is on my own car and have some idea of how to work on it. 10/10
