Summary: My Kids Love It!
Comment: I first looked at Crazy Machines, but chose not to buy it because I wasn't SURE that my kids would enjoy it... and at that cost, it wasn't worth the gamble. Then I found this and figured it was worth it.
I have a 6,5 and 3 year old. The older two love it. They enjoy watching each other play it as well and like to work together to figure things out. The thing that makes this game workable for my kids is that all of the instructions are given verbally as well as visually, and you can press a button to hear the instructions again. That means that even non-readers can follow instructions and play -- and what a great lesson in listening CAREFULLY to instructions!

myself wanting still more contraptions to solve and to build.
This software is everything I wanted and more.
