Start with the thing blocking you
Manuals for a messy first week
Each page starts with the short answer, then separates confirmed mechanics, community workarounds, and unresolved launch issues.
MANUAL / BEG Source verified
Getting started
Beginner repair workflow
A spoiler-light ReStory beginner guide built from the release build, official instructions, and the first questions players asked on Steam.
MANUAL / PLA Source verified
Getting started
Platforms and compatibility
Where you can play ReStory, what the Steam listing confirms for Windows and Mac, and what remains unconfirmed for Switch, consoles, mobile and Steam Deck.
MANUAL / STO Community workaround
Progression
Story not progressing
A spoiler-light checklist for missing story customers in ReStory: unfinished repairs, Inbox messages, required licenses, and the 1.0.015 progression fix.
MANUAL / CLE Community workaround
Shop
Clean shop, bad reviews
What to check when ReStory reviews call a clean shop dirty or smelly: active story repairs, Zen decorations, and the specific three-star progression bug.
MANUAL / AIR Known issue
Troubleshooting
Airbrush not working
Separate ReStory airbrush failures from palette and coverage mistakes. Check visible paint, the order label, controller scrolling, and unresolved no-spray reports.
Launch-build service board
Known issues, without miracle fixes
If a workaround has not been confirmed, we say so. The tracker records what players and developers actually reported, plus the date we last checked it.
Empty competition box with no usable device
A player reported an empty box; reinstalling did not solve their case. A general recovery has not been verified.
Story blocked after the rock musician’s guitar
The August 22 developer reply confirms a targeted progression fix.
Airbrush produces no visible paint
A no-spray symptom is distinct from a wrong named palette. No universal fix was verified in the checked discussion.
Firmware update fixes for Guitar Legend, MyPod, and gamepad
v1.0.009r fixed Guitar Legend and MyPod firmware jobs; v1.0.013r made the firmware mechanic work on gamepad.

Loved the demo and just bought it!
It's a nice cozy repair shop game with a fun story, attention to detail, and cool artwork.
I love the level of detail you put on assembly/disassembly.
As someone who does PC and console repair it is a relaxing way to chill and do what I love.
I played it and really enjoyed it a few months ago!
How this manual is made
Evidence first. Clean copy second.
We check official Steam data, developer-marked answers, release-build gameplay, and public player reports. Competitor guides help us spot missing questions, but a claim only makes the page when we can trace it to evidence.
The field manual stays deliberately focused: useful guides, task tools, a version center, and a source-linked issue database. New pages appear only when a player question has enough material to answer well.
