NDS Crazy Machines Set For Nintendo DS

Who doesn't remember the cult game The incredible Machine? Well, we can bring joy to the fans of the series, as a TIM-clone, Crazy Machines, is heading for the Nintendo DS.

Crazy Machines is a physics-based puzzler, based on The Incredible Machine. The player is given a task which he (or she) has to solve using series of mechanical components. For example, to light a room one might need to cut a rope which is holding a helium-filled ballon, that will then fly upwards to scare a caged-monkey which'll in turn start to run on a threadmill that'll start up a generator used to power the lamp. Sounds easy enough, doesn't it?

Crazy Machines on Nintendo DS goes further than a simple port of the PC version: this time an Action-mode will be included. During Action-mode, gamers need to construct their machine while the machine is already working. This requires some quick thinking and quite some responsiveness from the player.

Furthermore, Crazy Machines features the option to exchange solutions with other players over Wi-Fi (we're not sure whether this means local-only or not).

Crazy Machines for Nintendo DS is currently set for a European release this Autumn.
