This game builds on Facepunch’s modern s&box sandbox experience and expands it with tools and systems for technical creations. Instead of recreating the old Garry’s Mod, it preserves the original s&box experience and builds directly on top of it.



The main focus is constructing functional machines, vehicles, and automated systems. Mechanical components, engines, controls, and practical building tools give you the freedom to create anything from simple mechanisms to complex technical builds.

Many of these systems are inspired by popular Garry’s Mod addons such as Wiremod and ACF, with familiar ideas adapted for the modern s&box platform.
