Car Mechanic Simulator 2015 is a simulation video game depicting the work of an automotive mechanic. It was released on 23 April 2015 for the PC,[1] with a mobile release the following year.[2] The game is a sequel to Car Mechanic Simulator 2014, and was followed by Car Mechanic Simulator 2018 and Car Mechanic Simulator 2021

Gameplay

The game is played from a first-person perspective, with the player able to walk freely around the shop and a few other areas. Instead of levels, the game is divided into "jobs" - customer vehicles with a list of problems - which the player must troubleshoot and repair. Upon receiving a job and a vehicle, the player is required to remove, inspect, and replace the relevant broken parts. When a vehicle is reassembled, it may be taken for a test drive before being returned to the customer.
