Warsaw, Poland – October 1, 2009.

The games require players to solve puzzles while building wacky machines, with each level offering a set of specific parts that the player needs to use to build their crazy contraptions and achieve a specified goal. From humble beginnings – popping a balloon with a needle, for example – players will soon transfer to boggled-brain territory as they have figure out how to combine a rat in a cage, a goldfish in a bowl, two strings and a bowling ball. In addition to the given levels, wacky inventors can dive into the free play mode, in which there can let their imaginations run free.

“We are incredibly excited to be able to bring back the Incredible Machine series through GOG.com,” said Jeff Tunnell Managing Partner at PushButton Labs and the original co-designer of the original series. “It has felt great to let audiences new and old rediscover the great grandfather of physics puzzle games.”
