ReStory: How to Fix the Eight Toughest Devices (Assembly Orders)

The exact reassembly sequence and screw counts for the hardest repairs, from the Nony PMP to the Nony PlayMachine.

The exact reassembly sequence and screw counts for the hardest repairs, from the Nony PMP to the Nony PlayMachine.

Every repair in ReStory: Chill Electronics Repairs runs on the same loop. You accept a job, take the device apart by removing screws and panels, swap the faulty part, then rebuild everything in the reverse order. The parts list shown in-game is written in assembly order, so it doubles as your disassembly map when you take a device apart. The tricky part is the reassembly, which gets harder as devices gain more screws and more parts.

Quick answer: Rebuild each device in the exact numbered order below, and drive in the listed screws at each step. When the final part is placed with no missing or dirty components flagged, the repair completes and the job is ready to hand back or ship.

If you lose track mid-rebuild, open the in-game notebook to check what is broken, missing, or still dirty, and press the Space Bar for a hint. Some parts also need cleaning before they go back in, and the notebook highlights those too.


How repairs complete in ReStory

Most devices need their own license before their repair jobs unlock. Starter devices come unlocked from the beginning and need no license. Once you have the license, you can also buy new parts directly for that device instead of harvesting them from spare units.

To source spare parts, buy listed devices through your PC, then disassemble them and store the parts in your inventory for later repairs. That gives you a stock of replacements without waiting on new-part orders.

A repair is done when the last part in the assembly order is seated and nothing is still flagged as broken, missing, or dirty. If it will not finish, the usual cause is a skipped clean step or a part placed out of order.


Nony PMP (Sony PSP) assembly order

The Nony PMP is ReStory’s take on the PlayStation Portable 1000. It has 18 screws across 13 parts. Most of those screws sit around the display and front panel, so line those parts up carefully during the rebuild.

Atari Lynx assembly order

The Lynx carries only 12 screws but a high 23-part count, which makes it look worse than it is. Once you follow the order, it comes together smoothly.

Game Duck (Game Boy) assembly order

The Game Duck stands in for the original Nintendo Game Boy. It uses 16 screws across 15 parts, and its ¥ 191,000 license makes it one of the priciest unlocks in the game.

Nony Goman (Sony Walkman) assembly order

The Nony Goman is a music player based on the Sony Walkman, not a console. With 25 parts and 14 screws, it has one of the highest part counts of any device, so work slowly and check off each piece in the notebook as you go.

Patento BS (Nintendo DS) assembly order

The Patento BS mirrors the Nintendo DS. It has 16 screws across 15 parts, with the two display panels and the hinge making the top-half rebuild the fiddly section.

XI-Box (Xbox) assembly order

The XI-Box is ReStory’s version of the original Xbox, with 19 screws across 14 parts. It has a known trap: two separate parts share the name “Front Panel.” Use the visual preview in the parts menu to tell them apart rather than trusting the label, since installing the wrong one will block the rebuild.

Pokia Njoy (Nokia N-Gage) assembly order

The Pokia Njoy is based on the Nokia N-Gage, with its odd cell-phone form factor and 13 parts. All 8 of its screws sit on the UV Shield, so once that single part is off, the rest of the teardown is quick.

Nony PlayMachine (Sony PlayStation) assembly order

The Nony PlayMachine is built on the original PlayStation. It packs 20 screws into only 10 parts, so the screw count per part runs high. It is also one of the more profitable devices to fix, with a ¥ 54,000 sell price against ¥ 36,081 in parts.

Which devices pay off best

If you are chasing profit, the Nony PlayMachine has one of the strongest sell-to-parts ratios, at ¥ 54,000 sold versus ¥ 36,081 in parts. The Atari Lynx is another solid earner at a ¥ 45,000 sell price, as long as you are comfortable managing its 23-part rebuild. Keep the notebook open and the Space Bar hint ready, and even the biggest devices come apart and back together cleanly.
