Crayon Physics Deluxe

In each level, your goal is to guide a ball to a star. You draw and erase objects on a crayon-style scene, and your drawings become solid bodies that interact with the ball and the environment.

Use gravity and physical interactions to create ramps, bridges, levers, counterweights, catapults, or other contraptions. Puzzles allow different solutions, so you can experiment with simple sketches or more elaborate constructions.

The game offers more than 70 levels that grow more complex, along with optional challenges that restrict how you solve a puzzle, such as using only one drawn object. A level editor lets you create your own puzzles.

Players who enjoy the game often value the freedom to solve puzzles in their own way and the creative experimentation involved in turning drawings into working objects. Reviews also praise its gentle, hand-drawn presentation and soothing music, with some describing a nostalgic connection to drawing as a child. Others find the physics finicky or the optional challenges difficult, so the experience is not uniformly relaxing.
