Mechanical Master for DS, trailer and screens

chautemoc | July 11, 2008 | Previews | DS 
Midway has announced a brain-teaser game for Nintendo's handheld in the form of Mechanic Master, and a trailer and some screenshots have accompanied it.

The game features 100 levels of "puzzling genius" which challenge the player to build "wacky contraptions to perform simple tasks, like turning on a light bulb or releasing a balloon, in seemingly indirect and convoluted ways using the DS' stylus."

Many different modes will be featured; Mechanic Master will be on the shelves this October.


Martin Spiess, Executive Vice President International, Midway Europe, said, "Midway has already seen considerable worldwide success from recently introduced franchises, Game Party and Touchmaster. Mechanic Master is similarly aligned for the Nintendo family-orientated audience and we have high expectations for this title."

Summary of Features:

* Classic Mode - Use gravity shifters to change the direction of gravity, laser pistols and mirrors to cut things, a vortex to make things disappear and many more gadgets to keep the contraption in motion and clear the level
* Drawing Mode - The stylus is your main tool! Use it to draw, move, place and teleport objects to solve the puzzle.
* Level Editor - Test your gray matter by solving 100 existing levels or use the built-in level editor to create your own contraptions and share them wirelessly with friends
* Create and share your own levels with friends or send a limited demo version of the game over Wi-Fi

    This looks like a pretty interesting game... though I'm not sure I understand it completely. Are you supposed to finish challenges handed out to you?

    I like the way it looks for now, but like Jake said, I don't get it.
