    Great little game, polished interface, though some small bugs with the program crashing (outside of the actual game, luckily). Very addictive though sometimes a bit easy gameplay, with plenty of opportunities to revisit level and trying different solutions. Highly recommended!

    love the game! lots of fun. just wish it was a little bit longer, but other than that a great game. btw, i tried Magic Pen after playing this and to me it just wasn't as fun. That's just my opinion though. =)

    Finally a creative game that dares to be different. Crayon Physics could be described as a physics oriented puzzle game. But that´s a bit too much, why should all games fall into a category?

But that´s a bit too much, why should all games fall into a category? Anyway, in this game you have to move a ball (wich in fact is an apple) to make reach a star located in the level. How can you do this? Simple, just draw objects on the screen, the moment you finish these drawings will materialize and interact with any other objects in the level. You can create catapults, bridges, you name it. Now, the interesting thing about this game, and the reason why Im giving it a perfect score is because levels are always relatively easy to complete. Yet you are completely free to choose the way to complete the level. You want to relax and just reach the goal, you can do it. You want to built a ridiculously complicated level just for the sake of doing it, go ahead. Also, the game features a great soundtrack (too bad it only has 3 songs) and you can draw and erase stuff from the menu! Finally, it includes a level editor, wich means you can create and share dungeons ermm...I mean, levels and check what others created too. Buy it.… Expand

    A great game with a unique experience that gets you thinking and creating different strategies to complete each area. The Drawing physics are incredible and the sound track though limited, is done quite well.

    This is a unique, innovative little game. The objective is to get a ball from point A to point B, point B being a little star logo. You have to think and draw your way out to reach your objective (for example, you can draw bridges that your ball can roll on). There are literally dozens of ways that you can finish each level. Game also features nice, soothing music (always a win!).

    This game is really challenging and also have a lots of fun, its game-play abilities is like you get involved as much as you play this game, more you will play, more challenges you will face and really this game seems simple but very challenging.

    a fun game to say the least, it may be a little short, but it will keep you entertained through the entire thing. i like how this game makes you think, and that sometimes you will make some kind of elaborate plan to pass the level.

    its a nice little indie game that pretty much anyone can play and get the hang of easily.

    Эта игра очень успокаевает и раздражает одновременно когда не можешь пройти уровень!

    Having your drawings come to life is just wonderful, and when you choose to do something inventive and imaginative, you'll have a fantastic time. If only the level design forced this kind of innovation on the player, it would have been even better.

    The soothing music, incredible style and mind-bending puzzles come together to make a game that is sure to evoke a childlike wonder in even the oldest gamer.

    Without the game's being talked up so much over a period of ten months, and without the overconfident price point all that talk probably inspired, this would be a terrific value and an inspiration to indie developers everywhere. As it is, the too-easy levels, the lack of any limitations to make the puzzles more difficult, and the serious technical issues make Crayon Physics Deluxe a bit of a disappointment.
