It’s an astonishingly popular giveaway for a game that launched first in January 2019.
PC Building Simulator, which was created by Romanian indie developer Kiss Claudiu and published by The Irregular Corporation, does exactly what it says on the tin: it lets you build and grow your own computer repair business as you learn to diagnose, fix and build PCs. It features over 1000 real world parts from manufacturers like AMD, NVIDIA and ASUS, and has a Free Build mode where you can use all of these to create your perfect PC. People love this game – it has an “overwhelmingly positive” user review status on Steam.
