Incredible Machine Game is Incredibly Challenging

I got this as a present for my 12 year-old grandson and he has had a lot of fun with it. He has also passed it around to his brother (13) and cousin (8). it can be challenging, but also makes you think about how things should work together to accomplish a goal. Grampa (67) has also tried it a few times and it is both thought-provoking and fun. When you finally get a "Contraption" to work there is a definite sense of accomplishment. A must for the budding mechanical engineer.

I love this game. Working with it is not only challenging but fun. Only real con is sometimes I do the move right but it doesn't read but thats normal for technology to not read everything.

This is by far one of the hardest games I have ever played, but also one of the most rewarding. Online gaming is awesome due to your ability to enlist other gamers to defeat a particularly hard boss. I strongly recommend it for hard core gamers!

I'm going to start by saying we enjoy this game and are very pleased with it, but I will also warn others since it is a game that probably isn't for everyone. The game is hard. I mean super hard. We have played probably about 15 times and have only won 3 or 4 times. I also highly recommend watching a video play through first so you fully understand the rules and game play.

I had so much fun playing this game, but it definitely takes some explaining to a first timer. If you have time and patience this can be a very intense and competitive game. I love the art of this game and the player cards are beautiful. Just make sure the people you play it with are into board games otherwise they might feel overwhelmed and not give it a chance.

Incredible and unique game, very challenging and very, very imaginative.  You can practically feel the main character's desperation as she tries to escape.  The team that made this said they designed the game to draw the player in and make them feel as if they are a part of the story.  This game most definitely does that.  Enjoying this immensely.

This game is challenging when played with someone who is good at planning ahead.  We played a "strip" version where each of us wore 6 items of clothing and every time a ball was pushed to the edge, the loser had to remove something. That was the most intense board game I've ever played and enjoyed every second of it.

very fun game, however it gets extremely challenging near the end, and I had a very hard time with it. However after several attempts I got through it.

This puzzle is quite amazing but also amazingly difficult to complete.  It requires a lot of time and my kids gave up.  But I still think it's an outstanding product. I've had it for a few months and haven't had the time to finish it. I might have to wait until I retire.

These games are so hard! But so fun! And bring an alternative gameplay to some serious classics!

This is a very good, challenging game to play. the story's very good too. Your suit is damaged by a chemical called X so you have to get your powers back in a new suit which lets you absorb X. But a Powerful chemical of X changes into your shape with your old suit on it. So it shows up sometimes and you have to run away until your stronger.
  I highly suggest buying this game.

Very tough to beat, but very thematic and fun to play.

First and foremost let me say this game is amazing and beautiful and I'm playing  on a standard ps4 and there is plenty of stuff to do in this game and things to collect and taking down the machines is a challenge if your playing on hard mode but they are some things in the game that are not great that some might not like but overall this is one game that you have to pick up.

If you're like me & buying this game because of its similarity to Set (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00000IV34/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i01), just be warned that this game is a lot harder. Whereas Set takes a few minutes to click, I played this game for half an hour & I'm still not sure I know how to do it. Unless you already excel at visual puzzles, this will be extremely challenging & new synapses will develop.

The creator of Mario has done it again with a game that is sure to sell plenty of Gamecubes over the next few months.  This game is beautiful and very technically impressive, but at the same time leaves you begging for more.
You are marooned on a planet and need to find 30 different parts for your space ship, but with only a limited time to do so.  You have 30 "days" in the game that are really 15 minute segments in real-time.  You use small, mindless creatures called "Pikmin" that each have seperate qualities and abilities, who aid you in your quest.
The best part of this game is the difficulty.  The game is never too hard or really stumps you, but it also never gets too easy or repetitive.  It has the perfect mix of strategy and action, all doused in gorgeous graphics and control.
Overall, I would suggest this game for anyone who has a good 7 hours to blow with their shiny new Gamecube.  Who wouldn't trust the creator of Mario?

This game is very difficult. The gameplay is very very very confusing and it's one of the hardest game I've played. However, when I play games, its for enjoyment and for challenge. This game is not so much enjoyable to me and the challenge is ridiculously crazy. I'm into Ninja type action game and been a fan since sega genesis era but this game is not for me. Recommended for patient people who likes to use their brain to play games.

Extremely hard game, but it is still fantastic! I would not play with anything less than four player.
