The Contraptor Game

You control Conan, a character who builds elaborate traps. The main objective is to guide him through each level, using your mouse to place objects and trigger mechanisms at the right moment. You might connect a rope to a pulley, or position a weight to fall and knock over a barrier. The pacing is deliberate, requiring you to think a step or two ahead, and a mis-timed action often means starting the sequence over. It feels like quietly assembling a chain reaction, waiting to see if your plan actually works.
