Fantastic Contraption is everything that a flash game should be. It’s got a wonderful premise: Use basic tools to move a ball to a goal. Simple.The different objects in the game follow different physics. For example, the water rod can pass through other objects, the wooden one cannot. By exploiting the various properties, and by using the environment, you can achieve your goal.

It’s got wonderful music. It’s got fast learning curve. You could pick up and start playing the game immediately by looking at the hints and the interface. There is no “right way” to win, and when you stumble upon the solution, either through trial and error or careful tweaking, you feel like a genius. It’s awesome to build something you think will work, have it fail through unintended consequences, then stumble upon an entirely different solution. I’ve been playing the game all afternoon after someone twittered about it, and I love it.

Careful, you might waste an afternoon or two playing this one.
