Manic Mechanics

THE GAME DOES NOT EVEN WORK! After choosing "couch" to advance from the main menu and enter what I can only assume is the level select, the game slows to a crawl and massive rapidly flashing geometric artifacts fill the entire screen until after less than a minute or so, the game crashes. The devs are ASLEEP! No responses from them. What a ripoff! To think I paid actual money for a game that doesn't even work!

Great coop game for family and friends. We play with 4y old kid and it's not so easily to get all 3 gears, especially at rancho's levels. P.S. please fix achievements!

Get it on massive sale, It is not as bad as people say, I played it to the end with a duo and had a great time, didn't get all the achievements but we 3-starred all levels including optional in roughly 7 hours. It starts slow and then get some nice deepness on its mechanics, It can be really challenging but never unfair.

Manic Mechanics is a cooperative multiplayer party game developed by 4J Studios and published by Curve Games that takes the concept of vehicle repair and transforms it into a fast-paced experience built around teamwork, communication, and escalating chaos. Rather than focusing on realistic automotive simulation, the game embraces exaggerated situations and frantic coordination, creating an energetic multiplayer formula where efficiency and disorder constantly battle for control. Built with cooperative play at its core, Manic Mechanics delivers an experience designed to challenge friendships in the best possible way while rewarding players who learn how to organize under pressure. The central premise revolves around working inside chaotic repair garages spread across the world of Octane Isle. Players step into the role of mechanics tasked with repairing incoming vehicles while dealing with increasingly unpredictable situations. On paper, the objective sounds simple. Replace damaged parts, paint vehicles, install components, and get customers moving again. In practice, the experience quickly becomes a race against confusion where missing tools, misplaced parts, environmental hazards…

Really fun and highly underrated couch co-op game! I would argue that Manic Mechanics is even more enjoyable and nuanced than Overcooked and Moving Out. The game is very well made and polished albeit there being a few minor bugs. Keep in mind though that this game is quite short. You can finish the entire campaign in 4 - 5 hours. Totally worth it for an enjoyable night with friends though.

Game doesn't support changing resolutions. Advanced launch options do not work through steam either, so I can not effectively remote play with my friends due to the distortion between resolutions. If you plan on purchasing this game to play this via remote-play, pass on this game. Hopefully I have saved you 30+ minutes of your time that I will never get back myself.
