Computer game

Have a real sense of nostalgia over this computer game which I think we used to play a lot in the 90s, but I just cannot remember the details ( Read more... )

1990s, game

Was it The Incredible Machine?

Sadly, I don't recognise that from the images, although I think the concept of the game is very similar to the one I am thinking of.

There were also sequels... a bunch of sequels, actually, so if you only saw the first one, maybe look up those and see if any of them look familiar.

If you don't get any answers (though I'm sure you will) maybe try googling rube goldberg machine video/computer game and see what comes up?

I'll look into it - thanks! I did find a screenshot of one level that seemed very similar, but sadly the rest didn't. Maybe a later version though.

My other comment was marked as Spam for some reason, I guess because of the link, but anyway this sounds a lot like the old Mac game "Squish"
You can find it here

Ooh, the levels seem similar but we've never had a mac before. I'll see if anyone ever made a version for PC - thanks!
