Alright. Time to introduce a new game. Haven't been doing so for quite some time..
Free Online Game @ MoFunZone.com - Fantastic Contraption
At first when Ying Xiao and Ryan introduced me to this game in computer lab, I was a bit reluctant to try out since its not original. I was thinking "bleh, probably another edited rip-off version by noob game makers", so I continued to dota with the rest. When I reached home, I was quite bored.. So I just went ahead and try it out.
Simplicity is the best policy isn't it? =)

Overview
The game concept is an edited version of all the so-called famous games like "Magic Pen" and so forth, whereby you create some design of your machine to bring an object from one location to the goal location. So.. its not really an original game concept.

The first thing that greets you is the neat artistic design of the user interface. Unlike most other free online games, whereby the games have very very very shitty artistic appeal, this one on the other hand was quite attractive. In a way, it was quite cute. While playing, a constant music plays on the background looping over and over again. Reminds me of playing pacman loooong ago.. lol.
In this game, there's a total of 21 levels, and oh look at the joke they put there. Lol.
"Play with no Ads or Pop-ups!" <-- This wins HAHA
In-Game Tutorial
This is one of the clearest in-game tutorial I've seen in all the games on MoFunZone. I took screenshots of all the important parts. Have a look. You'll find yourself nodding with me haha..

Sharing of ideas
Need fresh ideas? Bored of your own work? Have a look at other people's!
In Fantastic Contraption, you can share your work and have a look at how other's solve the same puzzle as you! But definitely in a different way. There's no 2 same way of solving a problem, even in the real world as we speak.
Some are quite interesting, some of which are ideas which you would never have thought of, and of course, some are just plain brute force -.-"
Oh yeah, there's also a certain bug with the wheels which I noticed after looking at some people's contraptions.. Sure it looks nice, but it spoils the fun doesnt it =P
Let's have a look at 3 of the many different solutions shared for this particular puzzle:
Map Name: Full-up
Oh by the way, I took these videos using Snagit. Like I said, the sound quality of it is like shit, but the video quality is quite good. So I just took the video without the sound input.
If you're interested in using Snagit, download Snagit5 (the newer versions require you to buy it after 30 days. Snagit5 doesn't. Hehe)

SozoS's Ratings:

Sound Effects: 2/10 (nice initially but its so repetitive that it gets on your nerves after a while)
Gameplay: 8/10 (Uses your brain out instead of mindless clicking. My kind of game)
Replayability: 6/10 (Watching other people's contraptions can be quite entertaining!)
