In Manic Mechanics, up to four players visit the motor-obsessed Octane Isle, with the goal of making a name for themselves as the best mechanics. Players challenge the Master Mechanics who rule the island to prove their pit crews are worthy of joining the mechanics guild. Fix as many vehicles (cars, trucks, helicopters, tractors, UFOs etc…) as you can before the clock times out. The harder mechanics work, the more comedic chaos ensues. Watch your back as obstacles like fuel spills, exploding tires, short-circuiting robots, stampeding cows and alien abductions are thrown your way.
Octane Isle features five different neighborhoods to experience, across 25 levels ensuring no two games are ever the same. Grab your monkey wrench and friends and settle in for a wild ride as you set out to become a master Manic Mechanic.
Manic Mechanics is available now on Nintendo eShop for $24.99. Media interested in reviewing Manic Mechanics can email Danitra Alomia (danitra@reverbinc.com).
