Low-Budget Repairs: A Game for the Frugally Creative in 90s Poland
An upcoming game where players act as a handyman in 1990s Poland, focusing on cost-cutting and clever renovations.
Creating pleasant living conditions in House Flipper has proven to be a beloved activity for many. It’s akin to The Sims, a realm of aspiration and creativity. However, what if a game was designed for those who prefer to create the worst possible environment within the game?
It appears Low-Budget Repairs, a new title, is in the works where players assume the role of a handyman tasked with renovating 1990s Polish apartments. The goal is to adhere strictly to the contract’s requirements to maximize profits rather than focus on quality workmanship.
The trailer is amusing, exuding physical comedy reminiscent of Surgeon Simulator. The game encourages players to take shortcuts, such as tossing an old couch out of a window instead of properly disposing of it. Watering down paint to save money is just one strategy players might employ.
For instance, instead of meticulously aligning tiles and using the correct amount of cement, one might just wing it and place tiles without concern for neatness. If this quirky approach to home repair sounds appealing, Low-Budget Repairs is currently in open playtesting with an early version available.
