Two Ways to Play
In Model Builder, you can play in two different game modes:
Story Mode – this is a single-player campaign mode, where you get to discover the heritage of your grandpa Stan and his work. This mode contains all kinds of tutorials and guides, that you will need to start working in the scale modeling business. If you are a beginner to scale modeling, it is strongly recommended to play this mode first.
Sandbox Mode – this is a single-player mode, where you have all the tools and models unlocked right away. This mode is being used to practice your craftsmanship and try completing different models in several ways. This mode is recommended for gamers, that are acquainted with the scale modeling hobby or have finished a major part of Story Mode.
