Description: In a world where no one is special, where the word individualism is banned and everyone is working hard to contribute to society, you will find a repairman. A repairman struggling to get by and to maintain Cityscape – a massive infrastructure that requires constant care in order to function properly.
As the Repairman it is your duty to ensure that all maintenance tasks are completed, by solving increasingly difficult puzzles in a timely and efficient manner. Cityscape is a big place and everyone has to prove how well they contribute to its maintenance. Through 18 industrial levels, you will need to complete your tasks as fast as possible in order to make it to the top 10 leaderboard for each puzzle. Remember, without your efforts Cityscape would simply stop functioning. We value hard work, not your opinion. Your services are appreciated!
Review: In this game, you play as a tiny repairman who has been tasked with various maintenance tasks to keep the Cityscape ticking over. Sometimes you have to fix machines, do some plumbing and even gathering up your tools for the next job, but of course, things are not that simple when you are tiny and it often involves placing down blocks and solving other things before you can work on the main puzzle.
Overlooking the play area I loved seeing the little workman run around below. But what is better than that is the massive, sci-fi cityscape that surrounds you, you really get the feeling you are somewhen in the future. With simple, easy to get to grips with controls and some tricky puzzles there is enough to keep you amused for some time, and even after you have finished them all there are the leaderboards to work on.
While it might not be the biggest of games it does look amazing and most of all it’s loads of fun. Seeing your little repairman run around for the first time is a right laugh, but you soon find yourself knuckling down to solving puzzles. This is the perfect little puzzle game to waste a few hours on.
