Junkyard Simulator

Junkyard Simulator is one of the many simulators published by PlayWay, known, among others, from the Car Mechanic Simulator series. The game was developed by Rebelia Games, a Polish studio for which the Junkyard Simulator is a debut project.

Plot

We begin the game as a new owner of a small junkyard. Our mission is to become a junk potentate. The task won’t be easy and will require a lot of hard work.

Mechanics

Junkyard Simulator is a quite extensive but also forthcoming simulator. The players are tasked with the gathering of junk and preparing it to be able to sell it later on. During the initial phases of the game, our funds are rather meagre, forcing us to perform most of the actions manually. This means tedious walks around the junkyard and having to throw the objects to the crusher one by one. However, as the time progresses, we amass funds for various machines that facilitate and speed up the process. For example, we can load the junk onto a cart and drive it to the macerator, then use a parcel machine to pack it up in neat packages. Large items (for example, cars) can be transported using an electromagnet.

Carrying, transporting, fragmenting, and packaging is only the beginning. Junk can be segregated, as the buyers are willing to pay more, but for a certain type of the scrap. This task falls upon the player, as the machines cannot recognize the type of the scrap, so we need to pay attention and divide the junk accordingly.

Technical Aspects

The game shares certain elements with Car Mechanic Simulator series, mainly the graphics and design. As can be expected, during the game we are not subjected to pretty sceneries, as we spent most of our time on the junkyard, among damaged cars and other machines.
