What is this you ask? This is Crayon Physics. You’ve probably played games that involved physics before, but like this? I think not. Crayon Physics (not a really smooth name), takes a normal physics game and add a nice childish twist onto it, and I’m absolutely fond of it.

In another article I stated that my personal game of the year was World of Goo, and there’s a reason for that, I’m a sucker for games involving thinking and physics, and those are the two things that CP Crayon Physics have a lot of. If you go into this game doing random stuff then you’ll find yourself lost and probably frustrated. The reason being is now you have the freedom to do whatever the hell you want with your situation. You wanna draw a penis bridge? Do it, you can draw anything you want as long as it doesn’t exceed the amount of lines you are allowed to have in the game, and that amount is pretty high.

The thing that really draws me to this game though is the unqiue design, forget flash graphics, forget 3D envoirments, I love the childish setting. The background looks like folded paper, everything is drawn in crayon (well except for the star you’re supose to get). It adds a really warm, homey feeling that makes me remember the older days of drawing stuff in kindergarden. 

Another feature that makes this game just plain great, is the fact that everything is interactive. When you’re not doing a level, you can draw on the level menu different pictures or whatever, and even though this is such a small thing, it’s something others haven’t done before. This game is also quick to challenge you too. I’m only on the end of the second island and I’m already having some troubles with the set-ups.

For an enjoyable experience I recommend you get Crayon Physics, you’ll have having a ball will you draw balls. Having a tablet makes the game 10x more enjoyable because you can draw directly into the game. Still with a mouse the game is amazing and very unique.
