The developers of the series have been criticized by fans for recycling content, specifically all the games after The Incredible Machine 2, rather than creating new additions to the games. IGN described Return of the Incredible Machine: Contraptions as "a vintage blend of educational and entertainment software at their finest". Neil Harris reported in Computer Gaming World in 1994 that showing The Incredible Machine to an engineer friend caused "a chain reaction that brought productive work to a halt at a major naval yard".

Notably, the games simulate not only the physical interactions between objects but also ambient effects like varying air pressure and gravity. There is also a "freeform" option that allows the user to "play" with all the objects with no set goal or to also build their own puzzles with goals for other players to attempt to solve. The levels usually have some fixed objects that cannot be moved by the player, and so the only way to solve the puzzle is to carefully arrange the given objects around the fixed items. ![]() For example, mice will run towards nearby cheese. Available objects range from simple ropes and pulleys to electrical generators, bowling balls, and even cats and mice to humans, most of which have specific interactions with or reactions to other objects. The general goal of the games is to create a series of Rube Goldberg devices: arrange a given collection of objects in a needlessly complex fashion so as to perform some simple task (such as "put the ball into a box" or "start a mixer and turn on a fan"). The game was released through Steam for Windows and OS X on July 7, 2014. It was produced by Spotkin Games, a company founded by Jeff Tunnell, and features the same developers of the original Incredible Machine.

(c) What does the poet mean by claiming that has made a the difference ?Īns: The poets claim is his expression of his thoughts in the future, when while recalling this day he would like to think that he differed from the crowd and took the path that many did no choose, and that had made the difference in his life. ![]() (b) “I took the one less travelled by” Is this claim true? support your answer.Īns: No the claim is not true, because the poet himself admits in the second and third stanzas that the two paths were actually quite similar with regard to how much each had been trod. (a) Where is the poet when he says these lines ?Īns: The poet is imagining himself to be speaking these lines far in the future, after many years have passed and he is narrating the happenings of this day to an audience. (b) In these lines does the poet say the two paths are different ?Īns: In these lines the poet says that both the paths have been equally worn by the people passing along them, hence they are same. (a) What does the poet mean by passing? Ans: By passing the poet means the traffic of people on the paths. Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same. ![]() He admits that both the paths were similar and thus he chose one road, hoping he would be able to walk the other some time later.ġ. Which road did the poet choose and why ?Īns: The poet chose the second road because he had to make a choice as he couldn’t stand in the woods forever. It is also about accepting the choice one makes and looking back upon it as being responsible for one’s success in life.ĥ. It talks about our inability to foresee where each will take us, and regrets that we will never know what would have happened if we had opted for the second choice. What is the theme of the poem “The road not taken” ?Īns: The theme of the poem “The road not taken” is about, making a choice when confronted with two apparently equal options. In which line in the third stanza does the poet admit that both the roads were similar ?Īns: In the first line of the third stanza the poet says, “And both that morning equally lay,” thus admitting the similarity in both roads.Ĥ. Thus he seems confused if the roads do appear different or are actually quite similar.ģ. However in the very next instant he claims that both the 5 roads were almost equal in the matter of “wear” as the passing there had worn them really about the same”. What does he seem confused about.Īns: As the poet compares the two paths so as to be able to decide which one to follow, he first looks at one and then says of the other that it appeared to be more inviting since it was grassy and wanted wear”. We try to look into the future as to what can be the result of each option, but obviously cannot see that far ahead and have to make one choice.Ģ.The poet contradicts himself in the second para. ![]() Metaphorically the poet could be referring to that situation in life when we are faced with two or more options, and have to pick one. I try to make the best of what I have and accept the reality.Īns: Literally the poet is looking down one path, trying to see where it led to, but his view is obstructed by a bend in the road, where small plants and shrubs blocked his view. But I try my utmost to not to dwell on the past, and instead to focus more on future. After you have made a choice do you always think about what might have been, or do you accept the reality ?Īns: It is human nature to think about what might have been. In this way I hope to avoid blindly going down one path and realising I have made a mistake when it is too late.Ģ. Sometimes there is no chance of turning back after making a choice and so I would decide properly after evaluating all the pros and cons of my decisions and not choose just on a whim. When faced with such a choice, I would evaluate the pros and cons of each choice and maybe talk to someone who has had made the same choice or gone through something similar. Have you ever had to make a difficult choice (or do you think you will have difficult choices to make) ? How will you make the choice (for what reasons) ?Īns: Yes, all of us at some stage of our life have had to make difficult choices. ![]() Downloadsįor more details, please refer to our Shipping & Installation Policy.

For outside-mounting, Megan Hersch, the owner of Studio MG Interiors and online interior-design service RoomLift, recommends measuring about 12 inches wider than a window on either side, “so you can pull the drapes off of the window when you open them.” For the height of an outside-mounted rod, she recommends hanging the rod about halfway between the window and the ceiling for a very tall ceiling, place the rod about 16 inches above the window. To find the right length for an inside-mounted rod, simply measure across the width of your window, where you plan to hang your curtain. Curtain rods can be inside-mounted, or hung within the window frame, or outside-mounted, which allows the curtain to cover the edge of the window frame. |
