Smart Puzzle Game Online - Age Manipulation
A cute yet difficult puzzle suitable for elementary through high school age students & grownups who enjoy a tricky thinking challenge: Age Manipulation is a clever, gravity-based game where you must remove bad guys from the game screen by ‘manipulating’ the age of your good guy blocks in order to make them larger or smaller. Your careful, strategic block transformations should (hopefully) create a chain reaction that knocks bad guys off of their ledges and into the abyss / spikes below! This is no easy task as you must contend with awkwardly-positioned obstacles, precarious scenarios for your ‘good guys’, and a restricted number of ‘age manipulations’ in each level.
This highly-stimulating, interactive brain teaser puzzle activity should prove a fun test for fans of physics-based puzzles with an unusual twist. It also makes for a very good analytical problem-solving challenge. Strategic planning, smart decision making, fast mouse-clicking and a determination to learn from your mistakes are all important skills and attributes required if you want to be a success here. Enjoy the brain work!
How to Play: In each of the 25 increasingly-difficult levels, you must eliminate all of the dark-colored wooden ‘bad guys’ from the game screen, while protecting your ‘good guys’ from the same fate. You can interact with the game environment and alter the scenario by increasing or decreasing the ‘age’ (size) of your good guy blocks. Using your computer mouse / touchpad, simply Left Click on a good guy to increase its age and size, and Right Click on a good guy to decrease its age and size. Note that if you increase a block to its maximum old age, it floats upwards, unrestricted by gravity.
Your objective is to create a chain reaction that topples the bad guys either off of the game screen, or into a set of spikes. However, if you accidentally eliminate one of the good guys, you must replay the level. You only have a set number of ‘age increases’ (Age Points) as indicated in the bottom right corner of the game screen. However, you can gain Age Points by decreasing the age of your good guys (Notice that your Age Points increases by one each time you decrease the age of a good guy).
