Enter a world where everyday objects become complex physics puzzles to solve and share in Casey’s Contraptions.

This ingenious collection of Rube Goldberg style puzzles are designed to ignite inventive ideas in the minds of kids and adults alike. You’ll see the world in a whole new light through the eyes of young Casey, an inquisitive fella who likes solving ordinary problems (such as putting away toys or making a basket) in complex ways.

No Wrong Answer

Utilizing in-app physics and a wide selection of game pieces, you’ll find solutions to problems in the classroom, backyard and bedroom. Play smart and collect all the gold stars on every level to unlock additional levels as you go.

One of my favorite things about the Casey’s Contraptions iPad app is that there is no wrong answer. These tricky logic puzzles can be solved several different ways, calling for creative decision making.

Solve and Share

I’ve rarely seen an app make such good use of Game Center integration. Casey’s Contraptions allows little logic puzzlers to share unique solutions with their friends, compare solutions from others and even challenge fellow players with their own original logic puzzles.

The game’s level editor puts over 30 items at your child’s disposal, allowing them to have complete creative autonomy. You’ll be amazed at the things they come up with.

As a parent, it’s hard to ignore the great opportunities in this app for learning mechanical skills. It reinforces spatial reasoning and creative thinking, skills so many apps fail to highlight.

A Solid Value

Casey’s Contraptions is the kind of game that appeals to a wide audience. Your kids will love it, from the peppy soundtrack to the bright, interactive game pieces. But, you might find yourself drawn to the game as well. Go ahead, give your creativity a field day and see how far you’ll go.

The price is fair for such a well-made app. Developers already have two additional groups of logic puzzles planned, so updates are on the way. You can download Casey’s Contraptions for $2.99 from iTunes.

Bottom line

Casey’s Contraptions is smart, fun and interesting, with unique Game Center integration and an attractive price tag.
