Product Description:

CAUTION: You're about to enter a Three-Spin Zone.

Goal: Capture targets with the Con-Tri-ption.

The Con-Tri-ption traverses a large, triangular game area by feeding a single loop of chain through a series of six gears: three large motorized gears attached to the Con-Tri-ption itself, and three small pulleys that slide along the boundary of the game area.

The player controls the motorized gears, causing each to spin clockwise, to spin counter-clockwise, or to stop spinning altogether. The twenty-seven combinations of spin and non-spin allow the Con-Tri-ption to move in twelve directions, to move at double-speed in six of those directions, or to idle in place (in three different ways).

Mastering the Con-Tri-ption makes for an exceptional challenge and countless hours of fun.

It is unusual to see a relatively new concept in gameplay. While hitting or rolling over targets is not new the motion engine in this game is and will take some practice to get the hang of it and more practice to excel.

Kudos for a very nicely designed and unique game. My time with it thus far is short but I have encountered no problems yet.
