Simplicity Games is the developer behind Handymen Together, announced by PlayWay S.A. on September 29 with a Steam playtest set for October 19. The studio's catalog reports more than 30 million cumulative downloads on mobile.
Simplicity Games is a Polish studio that works with PlayWay S.A. Its pattern with PlayWay is a simulation game set in the familiar and the mundane: car repair in the 1990s Polish countryside, or handyman jobs assigned to a crew of up to four players. The publishing relationship holds across both stories: PlayWay announced Handymen Together on September 29 for PC via Steam, and both companies jointly released Cheap Car Repair on PC via Steam on May 28.
Cheap Car Repair carries the studio's name alongside PlayWay and developer Little Dog Games. It is a comedic shop simulation set in 1990s Poland, with repairs that include filling dents with putty, using stockings as fan belts, diluting gasoline with water, and installing a stolen water valve as a steering wheel. It also has an open world with side quests and neighbors. Since launch it holds a Very Positive rating on Steam at 91% of 202 reviews, concurrent players peaked above 5,200, and about half of the reviews come from Polish users, many praising the game for evoking nostalgia. A release sale ran a 25% discount through June 12, at 1,875 yen.
Handymen Together moves the studio toward multiplayer. Up to four players take jobs such as painting walls, replacing floorboards, repairing pipes, cleaning, and moving furniture, with physics simulation governing furniture and tools. Jobs add fires to extinguish and collapsed companions to revive through a medical mini-game. A playtest is scheduled to begin October 19.
