I can't believe how many memories this game has for me. At first, I'm like what is this game. My father got a free disc from work. The Incredible Machine - sounds like fun. So I gave it a try. At first I had no clue what I was doing. I was confused and everything. But then I started to get to know what I was doing. About a month later, I was addicted. I played it for hours and hours.
No matter what do, you could come up with a different design after design.
I beat the game a few times but it was never enough. The fact that you could build your own creations was the incredible. Figuring, that’s where they came up with the name, The Incredible Machine. So what’s the game about you ask? Sierra Entertainment published a game where there’s a series of puzzle with a machine to get an object from point A to point B.
Sort of what people saw in old school Loony Toons and Tom and Jerry Cartoons? For example, getting the ball into the box from across the computer screen - you get a certain amount to devices like gears, conveyor belts, cats, balloons, mouse wheels, candles, and much more. Okay,
so now what you’re thinking is, what do I do in the game that’s so much fun? One level you have a ball on a conveyor belt, and a box on the other side. You have to select more conveyor belts and hook then up so the ball rolls into the box. But the thing is the ball just won’t roll into the box. You actually have to hook up a power source. So you take a cat, and have it so it falls on a
Mouse wheel, so the cat scares the mouse and it runs on the wheel and it turns the conveyor belt which you hook up with a band. So now you have the ball roll onto the other conveyor belt. There’s definitely more to the game and the puzzles to get harder. But no matter what you won’t want to leave the computer till you figure out the puzzle. Even if you do give up for a bit, it’s never tiring building you own machine. There are almost too many options and different gadgets that you’ll never build the same machine twice.
I had been playing the game now for years and still I love it. So I recommend this game and if you haven’t tried it yet, you are missing out on a lot of fun. I definitely rate this game a 10 out of 10.
