You start as the owner of a car garage, taking customer orders to inspect vehicles, find faults, and repair or replace worn parts. Work spans systems such as engines, brakes, and suspension, with cars disassembled and rebuilt component by component.
Beyond customer jobs, you can buy cars at auctions or search barns and junkyards for restoration projects. Repair and rebuild them, customize their appearance, tune them, and take them for test drives or time trials.
Earn money and experience from your work to improve your skills and expand the garage with new spaces and equipment. Randomized orders provide ongoing jobs, while handcrafted story missions offer tasks with specific requirements.
In the supplied reviews, players often enjoy the calm, hands-on repair loop and the satisfaction of taking cars apart and putting them back together. Several say the detailed parts help them understand basic vehicle systems, while restoring junkyard or barn finds is another recurring favorite. Some reviewers also find the repeated repair tasks relaxing; others say that repetition eventually becomes tedious.
