All the way down!
The new
Trap Door adds some real mental cruelty to the game. A quick pull on the trigger and down, down,
down plummets anything that happens to be standing on that trapdoor!

Every
bowler's dream
With fuse burning, the bomb rolls to its target,
clearing all obstacles in its way. In the current version, there are three
different versions of bombs with different detonation times. So you can send
your explosives rolling a long way to your chosen target before they blow up

Hot Stuff!
This nitro
is the real McCoy - it'll explode with only the tiniest vibration.
|
|
|
Free Boards
Boards with
eyelets enable you to build clever shelves and swings. When you combine this
with the new characteristics of the crossbow, (splitting ropes, etc) fantastic
tasks are pre-programmed for you!

Contact
sought
A new switch gives you previously unheard-of
possibilities: Just let something roll over it - it will activate an electrical
circuit

Number 5’s
alive!
This versatile robot model pushes, pulls and
carries elements to their destination

A question
of gear transmission ratio
The days when cogwheels turned uniformly are over.
Now gear transmission ratios set the tempo.

Transport
flyer
There are 2 elements for you here: the Zeppelin and
the eyelet. The Zeppelin
isn't only a thing of beauty - it's efficient too. Only the proper propeller
setting will give you the correct flight trajectory
|
|
|
The
Highlight
Along comes
gravity and immediately you’ll have to answer some basic questions like “how
will the experiment function” on Earth, on the Moon or in space? - and what
will happen when the gravity in the experiment changes?
|
|
|
Vacuum
This clever element has proved very meaningful -
that's why we added it to the range: the Vacuum sucks up larger elements like
packing cases, etc. Small elements like e.g. rolling bombs or tennis balls are
ejected upwards.

Crazy Machines – New from the
laboratory
Brings in the middle of October grey
cells and thinking structures into motion. The style of the popular fiddling row
is applied here again: sophisticated chain reactions lead to solution of brain
challenging set of tasks.
With IQ on you and you
With its two predecessor episodes from Crazy Machines series Pepper Games has
achieved a firm master place in the Mental Game – Hall – of – Fame. The
development studio FAKT Software was honoured with the German developer price
2004 in the segment Casual Games and in addition, a nomination for Tommy
ennobled the successful mental exercise Olympics. Crazy Machines - New from the
laboratory holds now with additional features, integrated editor and over 100
Levels all playing aces in the hand.
Tool Time
Ten new elements, fresh function variety and a modified look captivate technical
hobby designers into their spell.
Having logical expert witness always back in mind, players combine time switch
clocks, wrecking balls and paddle wheels to adventurous physics constructions.
Even toaster and gramophone belong in the new laboratories to the toys of a well
sorted modelling amateur.
If all articles engage themselves correctly, the domino effect starts and the
puzzle solution is within reach. At
the moment we're still developing a version of Crazy Machines for
the Mac. The game will released in Spring 2005. More informations
will follow.
