Game May Summer Car (or Myrskylä in Finnish) is not just a driving simulator on Finnish roads, but a whole world with details that sometimes baffle players. One of these puzzles is wrench, which is needed to repair the car, but itself requires “unlocking”. If you spend hours searching your house, garage, and surrounding area, but still haven’t found a way to get the key, this article is for you.

Many players think that the key is somewhere on a shelf or in a drawer, but in fact it is needed actively "earn". The process is related to the mechanics of the game, which the developers hid in a non-obvious way. We will go through all the steps: from finding the right item to interacting with the lock, and also tell you how to avoid common mistakes that can cause the key to “disappear” or become inaccessible.

⚠️ Attention: If you have already tried to take the key and the game is glitched (for example, the key falls through the floor or does not respond to clicks), check the integrity of the game files via Steam or update it to the latest version. In older versions there were bugs with the physics of objects.

Where to look for the wrench: exact coordinates in the game

B May Summer Car the wrench is not lying around in plain sight - you need it free from the castle, which hangs on the wall in the player's house. Here's how to get there:

The house is located in central part of the map, next to the garage and sauna. If you haven't found it yet, follow the road that leads from telephone booth (where you can call a taxi) towards the forest. Coordinates of the house on the mini-map: approximately X: -200, Y: 150 (exact values depend on the game version).

Inside the house, go up to second floor along the wooden stairs. On the wall to the right of the window you will see wooden board with a lock hanging on it - that's where the wrench is locked. It's easy to miss because it's small and blends into the texture.

  • 📍 Marker on the map: The house is indicated by an icon house with a chimney (not to be confused with a sauna!).
  • 🔍 Hint: If you can't see the lock, try changing the camera angle - sometimes it's hidden behind furniture.
  • 🚪 Alternative way: You can enter the house through back door (back door on the sauna side) if the main entrance is blocked.

⚠️ Attention: Do not try to "pick" the lock by force (for example, by ramming it with a car or throwing objects). B May Summer Car physics breaks down from such actions, and the key can fly into the invisible zone of the map.

What you need to open the lock: a complete list of items

To remove the wrench you will need two items:

1. Hacksaw for metal (hacksaw) - for sawing chain.

2. Hammer (hammer) - for the final release of the key.

Both tools are located at different ends of the map, and they need to be brought to the house. Here's where to look for them:

Item Location Coordinates (approximately) Notes
Hacksaw for metal Sauna (on the shelf next to the stove) X: -180, Y: 120 Lies on a wooden cabinet to the right of the entrance.
Hammer Garage (on a workbench) X: -210, Y: 160 May be hidden under other tools - move them.

If you do not see items in the indicated places, check:

  • 🔄 Reload the game: Sometimes items don't spawn due to bugs.
  • 👀 Use a flashlight: The sauna and garage are dark - click F to turn on.
  • 📦 Check inventory: You may have already picked up the tools before and forgotten.
💡

If your hacksaw or hammer has disappeared from the shelf, try going to the menu Debug → Reset Items (only in debug mode). This will return all items to their places, but will reset some of the progress.

Step-by-step instructions: how to cut a chain and take the key

Now that you have a hacksaw and a hammer, follow this algorithm:

  1. Approach the castle on the second floor of the house. Hover your cursor over the circuit and a tooltip should appear "Use Hacksaw".
  2. Right clickto get the hacksaw, and hold down leftto start sawing. The process will take about 10-15 seconds real time (time does not speed up in the game).
  3. After cutting the chain will break and the key will fall to the floor. Pick it up by clicking E.
  4. Use a hammerto finally free the key from the chain fragments (optional, but speeds up the process).

⚠️ Attention: If you release the left mouse button while sawing, the process will be interrupted and the chain will remain intact. We'll have to start over.

The hacksaw is in your inventory|Hammer on your belt|Stand close to the castle (distance < 1 m)|No one is in the way (for example, the dog is not barking)

-->

If the key does not fall after cutting, check:

  • 🔧 Is the lock correct? There are two locks on the second floor - the one you need is the one hanging on the board, not on the door.
  • 🎮 Update your video card drivers: Sometimes item physics are buggy due to outdated drivers.
💡

The key becomes available only after complete chain cut - do not interrupt the process!
