This is one of my favourite games on my steam library.

It started as a creative only game and recently they finally released survival mode.
You can make anything you can think of assuming you figure out how to: ships, cars, tanks, airplanes, motorbikes, mechs but also robots, automatic turrets, vehicles with basic AI and more.
Feels like building with LEGO but better.

If you don't feel like making something for the sake of it, you can play survival alone or with friends having to deal with woodcutting, farming, mining and the usual stuff you do in a survival game.
The difference is that in scrapmechanic you don't just make a new tool to improve the speed of what you are doing, you can make automated systems for farming, woodcutting and so on: you have to figure out how you can improve the way you do things instead of just crafting a new tool with the shiniest material avalaible.

if this is not enough, you can even download mods for a better experience, upload your creations and download other people creations.
The community is very nice and will gladly help you if you need.

since survival just got out there are still some issues: enemies are too easy to kill, there are some bugs, sometimes it crashes and it's a little unpolished sometimes.
There are also some issues with fps drops: building too big or too complicated may generate massive fps drops but I suppose it's the price for playing a work in progress.
Can be unnerving sometimes but I can deal with it.
The game is in early access and the devs keep releasing updates nonstop so I expect to see the game getting better and better as time goes by.

if you like sandboxes, this is the game for you.
10/10 would make a somehow successful wheelchair again.
