"One of the highest quality puzzle games we've seen." – PocketGamer
"The visual design and imagination of the game are stunning, with great attention to detail, and the sound effects are downright enticing." – Adrenaline Vault
"A masterpiece visually, as well with the actual gameplay." – AppAdvice
INVENTOR MODE
Starting with simple puzzles, players are introduced to the widgets that are used to build machines — gears, pipes, balloons, chimes, hammers, wheels, props, and more.
TIME CHALLENGE MODE
If you finish a puzzle in Inventor Mode, it will be unlocked here. This time, it will take fewer moves to reach a solution, but you only have 30 seconds to find it.
MOVE CHALLENGE MODE
Take your time and plan ahead. Every tap counts when you only get ten moves to find a solution.
I’m so glad this game is back on the App Store. I bought it a long time ago and completed it. Last year when I wanted to replay it, I found that it didn’t have a reset option, so the only thing I could do was delete it and then reinstall it. However, after I had deleted it, I found it was no longer available in the App Store. So I was absolutely scuppered as i could no longer download it! Just by chance I searched for it again today and found that it’s back! It’s an intriguing yet soothing game to play, made even better by the lovely graphics. It would be great if a reset button could be added, but in the meantime, please don’t disappear from the App Store again
The best game you are ever gonna buy!

A good puzzle app - but only 10 levels
ReadingFan
I understand the reviews that complain about the 'Only 10 levels', but in fairness, the description does say it only comes with 10 levels. However, I do think that the 'only 10 levels' point is rather hidden away in the description and could be a good deal clearer.It is a shame because the beauty of the iPhone/iPod touch is pressing 'Buy' and knowing what you're getting without having to dig around the description. Apps like this rather take the gloss of that simplicity instead making one feel "Perhaps I should read the small print before I buy".I would have thought that making the 10 levels free, and then having ingame purchasing for the rest of the levels would be more in line with other apps, and what the buyer is used to.Having said that, I played the app for 5 minutes and it immediately became clear I would be buying the additional levels.When I first started the app, frankly, I did think "Is this really only 59p?" because the app is beautifully polished - it was only later I realised the 10 level limitation. And when I realised the limitation, I understood the low price and really did not mind having to pay for more levels.So I don't feel any "grungingness" at the limitation - I don't mind having paid 59p for 10 levels - I should have read the small print first. And the app is truly wonderful. But I do think the limitation should be more prominent.The only reason I don't given this 5 stars is because of the lack of prominence of the limitation. But the app is good value, albeit the gameplay of the first 10 levels is limited. In total I spent a little less that £3 - if it were a Wii game it would have costs a good deal more. I don't begrudge a penny of it.A beautiful app and a wonderful puzzler - just make the limitation clearer...
Sublime Puzzles...(Don't be put off!!!)

If you are Reading this just buy the game - then buy the extra levels, and get stuck in. Unfortunately it seems lots of a certain type have rated the game with their I.Q. score which has left the game massively underrated.If you are incapable of reading a game description before you buy and think a premium game developer owes you then you need to get a life or go and buy another 'jump' game for your 59p. If conversely, you can appreciate rich, perplexing and challenging puzzles, you actually work for a living and appreciate the relative value of hard work this game is for you. You won't regret it. One of the very best on the store.
