Manic Mechanics

Game • 2023

It’s time to dust off your overalls and hitch on your toolbelt in Manic Mechanics - a chaotic couch co-op game where you and up to three fellow grease monkeys serve the car-obsessed residents of Octane Isle. Your mission? Work your way through Octane Isle's five neighborhoods, challenging the Master Mechanics that rule each part of town. Repair as many cars, trucks, choppers, tractors, mini-subs (and even UFOs) as possible to prove your worth in this hectic race against the clock.

Ages 6+, but every child is different

The fast-paced, time-sensitive gameplay requires strong motor skills and quick decision-making that may frustrate younger children. While the theme is whimsical and cartoonish, the chaotic nature of coordinating tasks with others requires a degree of social cooperation and emotional regulation.
