PRODUCT INFORMATION
Return
of The Incredible Machine allows players to use unique, sometimes
humorous mechanical components to construct fantastic machines that
accomplish unusual tasks. Each puzzle contains a partially built
machine and the extra pieces needed to complete it and accomplish the
goal. The player's job is to use the pieces in the correct way to
complete the machine. As players become more familiar with the various
machine parts and their functions, the puzzles become more
sophisticated and challenging. This third installment of the Incredible
Machine series
from Sierra features improved graphics and new puzzles to challenge
virtual
engineers of all ages.
