Puzzle game like The Incredible Machine???

GASP!!! TIM! This was an amazing game! Too bad it's for DOS and you need an emulator to play it :(

+1 on a puzzle game like that.
 
The Incredible Machine was just an example. I wasn't really trying to ask any one to create an emulator, just if you knew of an Android game like this. Games like TIM exist for iPhone, Enigmo and Crazy Machines. I wish these would make it over to Android.
 
check out Space Physics

Space Physics v1.7.1 Game for Android | Brain & Puzzle

its not exactly the same but similar in, well, physics. instead of getting certain amounts of predetermined items at your disposal to create a rube goldbergesque contraption for getting an object from point A to point B, you basically create the objects by literally drawing them on the screen. balls, blocks, vehicles, pendulums, whatever. there's a lite version with 10 levels to help you get the hang of it but i got addicted right away and bought the regular one.

I too have been hunting for these kinds of physics puzzle games. I found a few worthwhile options but nothing quite on par with The Incredible Machine series. Someday hopefully. Though I could imagine the ultimate game of a rendered 3D contraption puzzle that incorporated the gyro sensors and multitouch interaction. ::dreamy eyed::

Spaghetti Marshmallows (or Lite) by Fruxotic Games - probably my favorite yet

Droid Balance (or Lite) by João Pereira - actually reasonably challenging despite its simplicity

Ball [free] by Josef Grahn - nice use of gyro interface, albeit simple

Space Physics (or Lite) by Camel Games - not sure I understand the goal; seems to be broken on my Galaxy S

Blow Up (or Lite) by Camel Games

Singularity (Full) (or Basic) by Ioannis Papadakis - sounds promising but I wasn't able to test this one

Angry Birds by Rovio Mobile - a popular game that lights up many of these same brain cells in its advanced levels

PS: Here's a few other (currently) non-Android Rube Goldberg style titles we should watch for...
DaVinci’s Secret Machines for iPhone
Whizzball! (online, Flash)
and links to those mentioned above
Crazy Machines 1, 1.5, and 2 for Windows
Enigmo for iPhone - This one looks particularly interesting

Oh man, I used to work for the cell phone provider Helio ("don't call it a phone"...lol) and we had The Incredible Machine on the game market. I played that game way more than I talked to passing customers.
