Fantastic Contraption
Oh my god. I can’t believe how addictive this game is. http://fantasticcontraption.com/. The simplicity of it really appeals to me. The idea is to move a pink block from one area on the course to another, and you do so by building a contraption from wheels and connectors. that’s pretty much it!
Doesn’t sound like much, but if you are like me, you’ll not only want to finish all the levels but also go back and experiment with loads of other different ways to finish in the vain hope of finding the perfect solution. A solution that excels by being so simple, or so elegant. So unusual, or so complex. I could play for hours. But I won’t go on for hours.
I will leave you with some of the best contraptions I have managed to come up with, and the first one you should really vote as amazing, because (and I know this sounds a bit arrogant) is ingenious!
- unusual technique! See if you can guess how it works before you start it!
- Minimalistic elegance, perfect timing.
- I saw a solution with more than one spinny thing, but this seemed a cooler solution (notice the pole to slow down the last ball slightly…)
- A cool way to do “The Ball”
That’s all for the moment, but I’m sure I’ll post more contraptions in the future…
