positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Car Mechanic Simulator 2015 literally made me go into automotive classes. No, I did not graduate. Lmao. But honestly, that says a lot about this game. It got me interested enough in cars, repairs, parts, and the whole process of taking something broken and making it work again that I actually tried to bring that curiosity into real life. The game itself is weirdly satisfying. Taking cars apart, diagnosing problems, replacing parts, fixing engines, upgrading things, and slowly learning…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Car Mechanic Simulator 2015 is exactly what it says on the box... one in a series of continually superseded and obsolete car mechanic business tycoon games. You have an automotive repair and maintenance garage where you work as an auto mechanic, a thankless job, and you can take on orders, or even buy old junkers and fix them up then sell them for a big profit. Gameplay consists mostly of clicking around on cars to remove parts and replace or repair them, as well as operating various…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →hey this one's really good, I'd definitely recommend claiming. very relaxing in a take-your-time procedural kind of way. I have a lot of hours in Car Mechanic Simulator 2015, and 2018 is even more expansive in terms of how in-depth the gameplay is.
unlabelledView post →First time trying a simulator game. I know nothing about cars. There's not even a tutorial. Gave up after an hour.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Huge lack of drinking, smoking, gambling, and no profanity button to callout to the NPCs. Too bad I can't piss in the radiator either. Other then that, you can't die in the game, so I'll give credit where credit is due! 6/10 would recommend for babies learning to wrench on cars.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Car Mechanic Simulator 2015 offers a methodical workshop experience built around repairing, diagnosing, rebuilding, and trading automobiles. Developed by Red Dot Games and published by PlayWay S.A., it places the player in charge of a growing automotive repair garage where virtually every job involves getting beneath the surface of a vehicle and determining what has gone wrong. Rather than presenting repairs through simple menus, the game allows cars to be dismantled component by component,…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I dont know much about mechanic but the game is still fun. CMS2018 is way better tho. Would Recommend
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ sucks ass. This is not auto-mechanics and this is not games. This is a ♥♥♥♥-show for clipboard contenders to vicariously roleplay a blue collar worker since they never got their hands dirty or their ♥♥♥♥ wet in real life
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →DO NOT BUY THS GAME. BUY THE NEWEST SIMULATOR INSTEAD Disclamer: This review is kept short because I haven’t played this game for ages. This review may be a bit inaccurate. It's a mixed combination of todays "standards" and how it was back in the days when it got released. Summary Gameplay Experience: 14 / 25 Presentation & Immersion: 10 / 25 Design & Technical Aspects: 16 / 25 Final Considerations: 13 / 25 Total score: 53 / 100 Poor: 53 / 100

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →kind of a mechanic now
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →CMS 2015 is basically a chill puzzle game disguised as automotive labor. You poke around a car until something looks suspicious, replace it, and pretend you knew what you were doing the whole time. It’s fun, relaxing and you’ll learn more car parts than you ever asked for, just to forget them all immediately after closing the game. [7.5/10]
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Pretty time consuming and tedious... but fun! Progression feels slow but rewarding (1 upgrade every 1,000xp. Which is around 10 jobs). I find myself sinking hours into this game, and wanting to buy the newest one!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Relaxing casual game. No time limits, refuse jobs with no penalties. Mechanical parts are simplified (eg. Clutch parts are the same for nearly all cars, gearboxes are more specific between makes and models) Graphics are 2015 nice. Play to earn cash and XP to upgrade the workshop with extras (Spray booth, Wheel alignment room, Port scanner etc.) There is a radius where you can click to focus on a new part which should really be increased (If you are working under the back of a car you can't…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I just love this game, this is the best Car Mechanic Simulator of them all, i don't like the latest ones because it turned into Train Sim World at this point just a copy and paste, Car Mechanic Simulator 2014 and 2015 are the goats this is the only Car Mechanic Simulator that i always come back to because it was so ahead of it's time, and with the car stripping DLC the game is so much better, making money in Car Mechanic Sim 2015 is a bit challenging but that DLC helps a lot the game is still…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Easy to learn, decent graphics but can get repetitive over time
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →https://youtu.be/1H9Mu29BDM8 Providing numerous quality of life features over the previous year model it's a far better representation of it's core systems but the whole package still feels like by the numbers busy work.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great game, great for car maniacs
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I was hoping to learn about cars but this really isn't about learning you already have to know everything pretty much...
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I got this game for next to nothing and originally only bought it because I was interested in the DeLorean from Back to the Future. I ended up enjoying it way more than I expected. I maxed out my skills and eventually got to the point where money basically meant nothing. I definitely recommend this game, especially for anyone who wants to learn about the different parts of a car and how they fit together. It’s also a great choice if you have a low-end PC or laptop, as it runs well without…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Moving from the 2014 original straight into Car Mechanic Simulator 2015 feels like stepping out of a cramped, dimly lit workshop and into a proper, state-of-the-art facility. The visual upgrade is immediately striking. The graphics have stepped up quite a bit, shedding the flat, sterile look of the first game in favor of better textures, dynamic lighting, and a much cleaner overall aesthetic. It is no longer just a functional interface. It actually looks and feels like a modern video game,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Played this as a kid while my parents fought. Sometimes I'd get beaten right after it. Not that much play time when I played it on my disposable HP ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, but I had a life back then. Sometimes coming home and repairing my 300SEL bit by bit. Good times.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →In 2015-16 Yeah, I would have recommended it and did, but now 10 years later the company functions only to release the same game with zero of the DLC added to the sequel over and over again
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A good game overall for anyone that likes cars or have the passion of working in assembling or disassembling parts. Gameplay is simplified in many ways but show a decent complexity regarding the car models and how the components are assembled together. A few drawbacks are present and can become annoying. Some of the models (especially DLC) have parts that clip through each other, although this does not affect gameplay at all. Cars like Tempest Magnum AWD W12 however, had its oil cap hidden…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →bad. CMS 18 or 21 is way better, also you gotta pay for sandbox 🥀
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →What a great game. It's very entertaining and it has great performance on low end systems. Newer releases severly lack of opitmizations, this is just fine. It looks great and it also has great mechanics.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The tutorial: Here's a car, fix it. I expected a decent tutorial showing me how to find the parts and how to replace them. You get a job where you have to replace parts based of % of damage. One job tells you to repair anything below 60% and another job 41%. So I have to check every part for it's %. It needs to be, fix the broken parts and extra for replacing parts which are worn, such as a timing belt or brake pads. It become a chore rather than fun. Perhaps a simple mode…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →good i like car car go vrrum very fast
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is aesthetically pleasing in a way that's hard to describe. The Garage itself almost feels like a home with how modern looking and clean it looks. It makes you feel like you're actually running a super professional garage. Part of this is nostalgia too. A lot of games in the 2015 era had this sleek modern aesthetic to them in some shape or fashion. Game play wise, it gets very easy once you learn the basics and unlock all the tools that can speed up diagnosing issues with a car.…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Cool way to learn the basics about cars.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i think it is good
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very good but basic car mechanic sim game. My dad bought it for me years ago to encourage me to learn about vehicles and it really does the job, you learn the basics and the names of all the parts and have lots of fun doing it. It's a shame the modding scene never really took off. 8/10, Worth the buy.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you move a car from Dyno back to the garage while you already have a car there game crashes. Ask me how I know...
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'm literally learning about cars through a game
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As a kid I always wanted to know "What makes it go?" This game helps me get an insight into identifying and fixing automotive issues. The pace of the regular game is too slow for my liking, but there is a creative mode available (possibly a DLC). If you want to chill and restore an American classic or muscle car, this game is for you. The graphics are lovely and it is not so complex that a beginner like me will get stressed.

Tutorial seems to stop as soon as you have accepted your first job with no help on how to navigate the menus or actually how to DO your first job. The first job was an oil change, but there was no oil plug, no oil filter and no oil cap anywhere on or under the engine. I managed to stumble through and figure out how to move the car to a lift. I got it up, but the only option was to remove the oil pan completely, no oil plug! WTF??? I really hope the newer versions of…
