Learn the build editor
Open the build editor and place your first chassis. Add an engine, connect axles and gears, then attach wheels and suspension. Test one component at a time so you understand what each part does. Our [Getting Started](/guides/getting-started/) guide walks through every step.

Master gear transmissions
Gears are the heart of every fast vehicle. Combine 2-step and 3-step gear shifts to create multi-speed transmissions. Avoid duplicate gear ratios to maximize the number of unique gears. Read the [Gear Transmissions](/guides/gear-transmissions/) guide for detailed ratio tables.

Wiki FAQ
Quick answers to the most common questions.
What is Screw Drivers?
Screw Drivers is a physics-based vehicle building and racing game by Creactstudios, published by Headup Games on Steam. You design custom drivetrains using engines, gears, axles, and suspension, then race against AI Monarchs or compete in multiplayer.
Is Screw Drivers free to play?
Screw Drivers was free during Early Access but became a paid game on August 20, 2026. Check the [Steam store page](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1279510/Screw_Drivers/) for current pricing.
How do I fix the 'car has errors' message?
Press X in build mode to highlight disconnected parts in red. Usually a part is not connected to the chassis or an axle is missing. Return to build mode and check that all gears, axles, and wheels are properly attached. See the [Troubleshooting](/guides/troubleshooting/) guide for more fixes.
How do I unlock new parts in the tech tree?
Complete challenges and races with vehicles that meet specific requirements. Note that the displayed unlock conditions can be buggy — the actual conditions often differ from the text. Try completing races with the required part installed. See our [Parts](/parts/) hub for details.
How do I make my car steer?
Enable steering on the suspension, not the wheel. Select the suspension part in build mode and toggle the steering option in its configuration menu. This is a common source of confusion for new players.
Does Screw Drivers have a track editor?
Yes. The v1.0 full release on August 20, 2026 added a track editor that lets you build custom maps with terrain, ramps, decorations, and checkpoints. Tracks can be shared through the Steam Workshop. See the [Track Editor Guide](/guides/track-editor/) for details.
Which languages are supported?
This wiki is available in English, Français, Deutsch, Español, Português (BR), 日本語, and 한국어. The game itself shipped 25 languages at the v1.0 launch on August 20, 2026.
