Plonkworks: Pegboard Machines

A half-built machine hangs on a pegboard. A few parts wait in the drawer. Snap them into place, press Run and watch the ball roll, bounce, get punched, blown and fired all the way to the basket.

While a part is in your hand, a dotted line shows what it will do next. Only the next step, never the whole run: aiming is easy, and the machine is still yours to work out.

HOW IT PLAYS • Drag a part from the drawer onto the board. It snaps to the holes. Tap it and round keys turn it or send it back. • Tap any part to see what it does: a small machine shows it at work. • Press Run. Every part that does its job gets a number: the machine counts its own links. • A miss leaves the trail of the run and a ring where it went wrong. Change one thing and run again: the re-run skips what you already watched. • The same build always runs the same way. Nothing is left to luck. • No timer and no lives. Undo is always free.

WHAT IS INSIDE • 64 machines in 8 chapters: Slopes, Bounce, Switches, Motors, Air, Levers, Cannons and Grand machines. • Planks, trampolines, bumpers, conveyor belts, boxing gloves, fans, balloons and pins, seesaws, spinners, cannons, buttons, gates and lamps. • Every machine is checked by a solver and a verifier, so it can always be solved. • Three machines are open at any time, so one hard machine never blocks the way. • A daily machine, easy on Monday and biggest on Sunday, with a streak and freezes for the days you miss. • Badges to earn, and the Long Machine: every machine you solved, replayed in a row with your own parts. • Hints that point the way and never solve the machine for you. • Works offline. In English and Bosnian.

FAIR BY DESIGN The game is free with ads between some machines, never in the first chapter and never after a miss. One purchase removes them. A pack of 10 hints is the only other thing for sale, and every machine can be solved without it. There is no game currency, nothing random to buy and no waiting to pay your way past.
