Machinarium

Machinarium is a neat little puzzler, although, as such, tends to be a bit frustrating unless you have a lot of time to commit to it. All in all it seems to be a good game though.

You play a robot capable of interacting with on screen objects within your reach, doing so allows you to solve puzzles that help you progress through the game levels. The basic mechanic is nothing more than a point and click style, but that's not surprising for a mobile port.
The first puzzle is not really that difficult.
I enjoy these style of games and this seems to be a decent example of how to integrate puzzles into a story direction, so I'm treating this as a win. 7/10 for this guy, it's ok, and not horribly difficult, but it's not cheap and I don't find myself driven to play it.
