Fans of car‑building sims who enjoy tinkering and can tolerate early‑access rough edges will find something to appreciate, especially if they are prepared to spend more time uncovering the game’s hidden depth.

Is Underground Garage worth it in 2026?

Mostly no, given current feedback: 64% of 716 Steam reviews are positive (player score 38/100). Most-praised strength: Gameplay. Main point of caution: bugs / instability. Current price: 14,99€.

Verdict

Underground Garage offers a promising simulation foundation, but its current bugs, performance issues and perceived price point dampen the experience for most players. Those who focus on the customisation and are patient with the early glitches may still find the title rewarding, while the broader audience might prefer a more polished alternative.
