![]() ![]() The ability to carry items seems like a good idea, but any items you collect will eventually be expended in pursuit of conquering the latest head-scratcher. No trophies for you! The game is one giant string of puzzles. Some of them are deceptively straightforward. Others will have you banging your head on the wall. Fortunately, the game offers you one hint per screen (which tells you what you need to accomplish, if not how to make it happen). If you really get stuck, play through the hint book mini-game located at the top-right of the screen. Make sure to study the diagrams well: once you close the book, you’ll need to play through the mini-game again to see those same hints, which can get a little tedious. To proceed to the next screen, figure out the one you’re on. First things first: Get back your missing limbs! There is no immediate explanation of what led to your being deposited out the back of a flying refuse bin, nor is any reason to progress presented to you (other than wanting your limbs back) at first. You’ll need to move your cursor around the screen to find points you can interact with. ![]() Drop Right InĪs you start the game, you’re dropped in a trash heap. The robot denizens are whimsical and endearing: if ASIMO had this much it-factor going for him, there would be one under every Christmas tree this holiday season. ![]() Amanita has constructed an ancient clockwork world for a collection of forgotten automatons. Every screen appears to be hand drawn, and lovingly detailed. The art design follows the tradition of Machinarium’s spiritual predecessors and exceeds both titles notably. Machinarium is an all new adventure, making use of the same point-and-click mechanics, but taking place in a metropolis inhabited by robots. What We ThinkĪmanita Design, creators of Samarost and the subsequently beautiful Samarost 2 have released their latest title. A little robot who’s been thrown out to the scrap yard behind the city must return and confront the Black Cap Brotherhood and save his robot-girl friend. Machinarium is award-winning independent puzzle / adventure game developed by the makers of popular web-games Samorost and Samorost2. ![]()
