ReStory: Chill Electronics Repairs

I've been loving the game since the demo came out, and as expected, the game is great! very chill, the stories are cute and you might recognize some of the funny cameos in the game too..

Very addicting and satisfying. I do wish some of the models had a bit more detail, but other than that little nitpick, such a great game.

Fun and chill game, really enjoyed it!

Ich habe jetzt die Story durch. Ich liebe das Spiel <3 Das basteln und die Story ist einfach so schön und cozy. Die Musik ist gut und passt zu den ganzen Vibe vom Spiel. Anfangs hatte ich angst das mir Spiel persönlich zu monoton werden könnte, doch das war nicht der fall. Ja man hat seine Reparaturen die immer wieder kommen, aber das Spiel ist so gut darin das man gar nicht merkt wie die Zeit verfliegt. Ich werde jetzt auf jedenfalls noch mal einen Run machen um zu sehen ob es ein zweites Ende gibt ;D Liebe an die Entwickler, man merkt das dieses Spiel viel Liebe und zeit bekommen hat.

Well, I bought this today while at was at work, immediately at launch. After getting home, I proceeded to play it for 7.9 hours straight, apparently. It's not 1:15am and I need to go to bed for work tomorrow morning. So that gives you some idea of how much I'm enjoying this game! It's truly a blast. Repairing the devices is fun, the dialogue and subplots are wacky, you build skill and knowledge in this stuff as you play, there's a main questline to follow, there's the income-reinvestment-improvement loop, everything you'd really want. If I have any complaints, they're very minor. Sometimes it's really hard to tell if a screw is still in the device or not, and the only way to tell for sure is to turn it and see if it falls in your tray or doesn't. Certain things could have used a bit more tutorial. I have no idea what makes airbrushing go into "freestyle" mode or not. None are a huge deal, really. The game is incredibly fun, and very solid right from the get-go. I suspect this is going to take up a LOT of my free time for the foreseeable future.

Gameplay Genre: Cleaning/restoration Story Genre: Save Our Town Story/Gameplay Ratio: 1:2 **Gameplay** Ideas: 8/10 | Taking the "cleaning simulator" system and not only applying it to smaller objects instead of large spaces but also adding the detailed work of taking something apart and putting it back together is very inspired, and makes for a unique experience. Execution: 10/10 | No notes. Very fun, easy to learn gameplay that's super satisfying. **Story** Ideas: 7/10 | Not revolutionary concepts, but definitely interesting, with a lot of unique interactions with the tropes it's pulling from and playing on. Execution: 8/10 | It genuinely feels like you're a part of this neighborhood, despite the fact you never see anything other than your shop and the street outside its window. **Characters** Ideas: 8/10 | Fantastic plays on classic tropes, with complex and interesting interactions. Execution: 10/10 | Every character has strong, compelling motivations, flaws, and traits that make them stand out and keep your interest the whole game through. **Visuals & Sounds** Ideas: 9/10 | An adorable art style and some great musical ideas. Execution: 9/10 | The combination of 2d and 3d works very well here, with neither art style feeling too out of place with the other. The music and sound design is also phenomenal, and make the whole game feel very cozy. Cohesiveness: 9/10 | Very coherent, themes are consistent throughout. Personal Favor: 9/10 | This was a lot of fun to play! **OVERALL RATING:** 8/10

Very cosy and fun game! Some small QOL updated would make the game even better
