Arriving on a curious planet, Vix and her toolbox Tin explore space, fixing machines with unconventional tools and eating cozy meals with kind robot locals. On an epic adventure, the duo repairs an interstellar beacon, constructs giant mechs, and unravels a cosmic mystery that transcends existence.
You take on the role of Vix, a space mechanic, and must use an assortment of unconventional tools and items to fix broken machines, devices, and objects throughout the game world. The repair process works as follows: You inspect a broken item to determine what types of tools or materials it needs. Your inventory contains various items like coins, feathers, bandages, and more, each with specific properties that allow you to use them as tools for repairing certain types of damage or malfunctions. You must experiment with different combinations of items to figure out the right "tool" for the job, introducing a light puzzle-solving element that relies on your creativity.
As you progress and complete more repair jobs, you gain access to new areas, characters, and narrative elements. Completing repairs also yields resources that you can use to permanently upgrade Vix's abilities and equipment. For example, you can find schematics to construct larger, more powerful "mech" vehicles that allow you to access new regions and tackle more complex repair challenges. There are also upgrades that increase your tool durability, inventory space, or the types of items you can utilize as improvised tools. These progression systems encourage you to continue exploring, repairing, and upgrading in order to overcome increasingly difficult challenges.
The game consistently presents new and interesting repair challenges, forcing you to think outside the box. Whether you're restoring a malfunctioning cooking appliance, repairing a giant mech suit, or fixing a communication beacon, the variety of broken machines and objects keeps the core loop feeling fresh. The ability to use unconventional "tools" like coins, feathers, and bananas adds an element of whimsy and encourages experimentation. Additionally, the quirky robot characters you interact with further expand the narrative and contextual elements surrounding each repair task.
Reviews consistently praise the game's repair gameplay loop as a satisfying and rewarding core mechanic. Players express a strong sense of accomplishment and joy when successfully fixing a broken machine, especially when using unexpected or improvised tools to do so. The process of diagnosing the problem, gathering the necessary materials, and then applying the right solution resonates with many players as a genuinely engaging gameplay loop. The fact that these repair tasks are interwoven with a charming narrative and cast of characters only heightens the overall satisfaction, and the ability to creatively problem-solve using the game's unique items and tools is a major draw for fans.
