Ok, so I'm a huge fan of Gearhead Garage. I've bee waiting and hoping for a new version of it for at least 12 years now, but obviously at this point it's not gonna happen. When I first learned about this game a few weeks ago, I was estatic!

Gearhead Garage Download Free Full Game is a PC game where players repair and customize late model cars and trucks. It was created by Mekada, endorsed by Snap.

My hopes were high, and when it released today I only lasted a couple hours before I bought it. Now I'm here to tell you how I feel about it. On the surface, it does seem very similar to Gearhead Garage. You get jobs, in which ou need to take parts off cars, and put new parts on cars. Not real cars, but make-believe cars that loosely resemble real cars.

For those of you that don't remember, Gearhead Garage didn't originally have real cars either, the only real cars in the game were third party unofficial modifications. So far, looking good. Personally, my favorite part of Gearhead Garage (other than 3rd party mods) was the ability to buy crappy cars at auction, fix them up and resell them at auction. After 25 or so missions, I haven't seen anything like that in Car Mechanic Simulator 2014. It's just been mission after mission after mission. The only thing I see to spend your har earned money on is mediocre upgrates to make you 5% more money on jobs, make bolts loosen 5% faster, or other trivial upgrades.

In other words, there really isn't much of a reason to make money in Car Mechanic Simulator 2014. Don't get me wrong though, the game is somewhat entertaining. It's not extremely educational, if you know virtually nothing about cars it will give you a basic idea of where car parts are, what parts are named, and a very basic understanding of car diagnostics, if you pay attention. But a lot of aspects of the game aren't very obvious. I've changed the oil on more cars than I can count, but it took way longer than it should have to find the oil drain plug in this game, and once I did it looked NOTHING like an oil drain plug looks like in any real car I've changed the oil on. I also didn't find out there was an oil draining pan until I read about it on this forum. This is good, and bad, a double edged sword.

The game does not hold your hand through the car repair process. It gives you the opportunity to figure things out on your own. Still though, it would be nice if something had told me I could click on the oil catch pan, instead of wasing $100 on every oil change for a clean up fee. Also, the test driving physics are laughable.

They made Grand Theft Auto feel like Gran Turismo. It's a nice tough. But don't expect any of the cars to handle even remotely realistic. It's a gimmick, at best. A cheap way to see the quality of some of the parts on the car.

Not entirely useless. Just not well executed. But what can you except from a game that released for $15? The game is decent.

It's the best car mechanic game since Gearhead Garage. But it's not more fun than Gearhead Garage. Not even AS fun as Gearhead Garage was, IMHO. The graphics are ok.

The part location accuracy is decent. The gameplay mechanics are not bad. It's a combination of point and click searching, along with some puzzle solving. Once you start figuring things out, you can build a decent strategy to solve most car problems. The game still throws you for a loop though. Sometimes because it's a genuinely good puzzle.

Sometimes because the game should have let you know where to go to find an option. I want to fully endorse the game. But I'm having a hard time doing that. I guess it's ok. If I knew what I know now, I'd wait for it to go on sale at $5, but I had to find out for myself. I'm not strongly disappointed with my purchase.

Just a little. I'm still hoping the game will get better with mods, expansion packs or maybe after a few more missions. But I'm not holding my breath either.

This game has mostly just whetted my appetite to try to get Gearhead Garage running on my PC again. Other than that, I think it'll be a decent diversion when I want a game to just burn time with. The mechanics of the game are ok, if you haven't played Gearhead Garage then I think you might find it a refreshing turn of pace from the average lot of games on the market today. If you did play Gearhead Garage, and loved it like I did, then I think you'll appreciate this game, but find it mildly disappointing. Anyway, enough with my ramblings, here's the gameplay video I made to show you how the game plays.

I've played the game for roughly 3 hours now, and all the gameplay is the same as this, simply rinse and repeat. From what I have read about it until now I won't buy the game now without: 1. More differences between cars (each model should have different engine - from many types like in real life - or at least there should be car groups like real-life VW-Audi where different brands share the same engine).
