ReStory: Chill Electronics Repairs

ReStory: Chill Electronics Repairs is developed by Mandragora and published by tinyBuild. It released on August 6, 2026, for Windows and macOS via Steam. Set on the bustling streets of mid-2000s Tokyo, players run a small electronics repair shop, restoring nostalgic Y2K-era gadgets while getting drawn into the personal stories of the customers who walk through the door.

Über das Spiel

ReStory builds its loop around hands-on device repair rather than abstract shop management. Players take apart nostalgic consoles, phones, cameras, and music players piece by piece, clean each component, replace faulty parts, and reassemble everything using a trusty toolset. Beyond the repair bench, running the shop also means greeting customers, managing finances, and browsing a period-accurate web browser to hunt down spare parts online.

Conversations with customers carry real narrative weight, since dialogue choices can shape the direction of their lives alongside the shop’s own story. A branching plot with multiple endings responds directly to these decisions, whether that means reporting a disturbing discovery inside a former gangster’s phone or helping a lovestruck student work up the nerve to confess. Officially licensed Atari consoles sit among the roster of restorable devices, adding genuine nostalgia to a game already steeped in early-2000s Japanese urban atmosphere.
