Pokémon Mystery Dungeon and Broken Sword aside, this is one of the few games I played as a kid. It is a simple puzzle game without any action or force, just like Broken Sword where you can just play the story. It has individual levels where you are faced with a challenge, to build a system that achieves a specific goal. For that, you need to use the parts provided. There are no NPCs, but in the later games there was a professor making funny comments, just like George Stobbard.
Just like Broken Sword, my dad was the one to introduce me to that game. And since it is pretty old, I think it might be difficult to get it running on Windows 11. But I have to admit that I barely think about this game and have no clue if we still have the disc we used back then. I checked the internet at some time, but then forgot about it again.
