Name the game - part 6

BB, what was the more recent game that stole Ignition's ideas then? I'd never heard of it, and am dumbfounded as to which other game could have used the ideas.

[Buck Birdseed]

"Stole"? Well, the developers eventually made another game using an improved engine called something like "Hot Wheels: Micro Racers" with an official Mattel licence. Apparently it was crap, but then UDS we're very hit-and-miss, anyone remember Airfix Dogfighter?

[child of Thor]

yeah airfix dogfighter - I could have told them that wouldn't really swim. A bizare idea looking back on it, but there have been worse im sure.

Is it Viking chess?(that old viking board game) I've got a version called Valhalla?

[duke o' york]

Is it Klax on the Genesis?

Clue #4: the objects all have different properties that will help them reach the other side. Some are fast, some are avoidant, some will turn other objects around or make them dissapear, and one object will help reactivate stalled objects.

bubble bobble?

marble madness?

Clue #5: The game is pseudo-turn-based. Every time you select a different object type or release an obejct a timer is reset. The longer that timer is on, the longer the subsequently released object will go before stopping.

You know, I think I've played this game, but I can't even start to remember what it was called... of course, I could be thinking of something else entirely

[Adagio]

The Incredible Machine?

[child of Thor]

Is it a 'puzzle' type game? - i never played many of those

[duke o' york]

It's definitely a puzzle-type game. But so many of them were the same.

[DrSpike]

I think ADG has it.

[Buck Birdseed]

Clue #6: No he doesn't. And I'm not just saying that to wind you up.

Clue #7: The objects are mechanical toys. According to the Game's title, even their brains are mechanical.
