Description

Fantastic Contraption is a 2D physics building and puzzle game. In every level the goal is to get a red ball from a blue building zone to a pink goal area. This is done by constructing contraptions using wood rods (solid), water rods (pass through stuff), and wheels that turn clockwise or counterclockwise to create contraptions that guide the ball to the goal zone. Players can create tanks, conveyor belts, catapults, slingshots, ramps, pulleys to achieve this. A lot of experimentation and trial and error with the physics is usually required to finish a level. The available tools are available near the top of the screen and there is no fixed solution.

Players can play for free with a set of premade levels or create their own levels and play other user-made levels for $10. Server support for the games ended in February 2015.
