The actual loop is a slow descent into beautiful, grease-stained obsession. You start with a rusty Fiat that won’t turn over. The game gives you a list: “Inspect the car.” You click on the hood, then the engine block. A UI element glows red—the starter is dead. You enter “Parts Catalog” mode. You have $2,000. A new starter costs $180. You buy it. You click on the old starter, hit “Remove,” then “Install.” You tab back to the car, turn the key. PC - Car Mechanic Simulator 2021
