What is PC Building Simulator?
A first-person, single-player simulation where you run a PC building and repair business from a workshop.

Free Build lets you experiment with licensed real-world components, cooling, overclocking, and benchmarks, while a separate campaign follows corporate IT support.
For you if...
- +you enjoy relaxed, methodical repair and assembly tasks
- +you like balancing customer jobs, parts, and business costs
- +you want a single-player sandbox for custom PC builds
Not for you if...
- −you want multiplayer or competitive play
- −you prefer fast action over careful workshop routines
- −you expect professional-level PC building instruction
What players say
94% of 46,322 reviews are positive · 92% of 56 in the last 30 days
Players most often praise the beginner-friendly explanations of components and assembly, saying the game helped them understand basic PC building. The main complaint is the now-outdated hardware catalog; some players also find the job variety limited and interactions, inventory work, or repeated software installs cumbersome.
