Fantastic Contraption

Several weeks ago, some of my 8th grade students show me a online game called Fantastic Contraption. Fantastic Contraption (FC) is a Flash-based physic puzzle game that requires the players to move an object into the goal. Each level is different and it gets progressively more difficult. 95% of my student love it! (As do I)

There are 21 levels that are available for free. You can sign up for a free account to keep track of your progress and, save your levels and let other players view how you solved them.

If you find yourself hooked and need more there is a paid account ($10) that that will allow you access to more levels or even the ability to create your own levels. Also, the people behind FC have created an iPod/iPhone game that is can be downloaded from iTunes ($4.99).

Here is the first free level

Level 20

My daughter Annabel (6) has been hooked as well.
