Others like this one just make me smile because it's so lovely
They're worth viewing in their larger sizes just to appreciate the details.
Hazel and I have also been playing a lot of Machanarium which is this fabulous little game from Amanita Design. Essentially you have to solve puzzles to help a little robot rescue his girlfriend from the bad guys and foil their nefarious plan.
This is the opening screen
Most of the puzzles are too hard for Hazel to solve at four, and several of them are too hard for me to solve at 40 - but that's what cheat sheets are for right? Otherwise it gave my brain a great workout and Hazel noticed lots of little details that I missed so we made a great team.
We reached the end and now we've been going back and playing again just to enjoy the story, the drawings, and the very very cool music. The Machinarium link above takes you to a free demo of three 'levels' and then you can buy the full game + soundtrack if you want. Personally I thought it was well worth the price!
oh my gosh, went to the link, and played through the demo. I think I'm going to need to buy it now!

ReplyDeleteYes, totally cool game. I can't wait to try the demo with Mr 4, who is robot-obsessed!
