PC game transports player to a workshop with the most varied types of services and temperaments of customers
Who has never suspected a mechanic who throws the first spark plug. Delays, unnecessary services, abusive prices, use of old parts are some of the complaints about the bar table, family lunches and even work meetings. But few people know what it’s like to be a mechanic and a good way to live it without grease on your skin is the Car Service Together simulator.

It is a mechanic shop simulator in which the objective is simple: fix the cars of the clientele. Developed by V12 Studio and with a PC version, the game will make its debut on February 4, but it already has a demo available for download on Steam.
In this game that can have up to four players, the goal is to keep the business running. For this, customer service (with excellence is essential). With initial capital, the player has money to buy his first machinery, such as a hydraulic elevator.
With it, it is possible to perform services such as changing oil, pads and brake discs. With the increase in revenue, it is possible to buy a wheel assembly and disassembly machine, as well as balancing tools.
The workshop is open from 8 am to 8 pm, during this period, the player can order parts from the distributor, receive new customers and deliver the finished car. It is necessary to pay attention to delivery times and the requirements of each customer.
There are customers who are specific in only maintaining the requested item, and even if another component is condemned, it should not be replaced. Others, however, leave you free to change whatever the mechanic wants.
But the player must be aware of the specifications of each car. Correct measurements of tires, discs, pads and other parts are essential to avoid losses and have dusty items in stock.
Car Service Together, like every game, has a challenge progression process. Heavier services, which demand a lot of time and orders, can congest the workshop.
Delay in delivery is penalized with rebates that compromise the gain. And of course, it is necessary to invest in new machines, to receive more profitable services.
Car Service Together doesn’t pretend to be a photorealistic game, but it has good graphics with cars that refer to the Lada Laika, BMW 7 Series, Volkswagen Golf and even Dodge Charger.
But what matters is the level of detail of the parts and components. When removing a wheel, it is possible to change spacers, discs, calipers and brake pads, as well as wheel hub and springs. The representation of the suspension is cool, you can see the trays.
Of course, it’s all far from an actual suspension, but it does allow us to get an idea of how the system works. And if the friend is wondering if this serves as a tutorial for real exchanges, the answer is: NO!
The game gives only an idea of how complex the maintenance of a car is, but much simpler than the practice in the real world.
Even so, it’s a delightful game for those who like cars and maintenance. You can spend hours changing parts and listening to customer complaints.
It is worth downloading the demo version, as it does not require a powerful machine. A computer with Windows 10, 8 GB of RAM AND 6 GB of storage already runs the game.
And best of all, you don’t even have to pay for an internet guru or bakery counter coach to attract your clientele.
