    Necessity is the mother of invention, they say. It's fortunate that as an aloof and inconsiderate parent, she never bothered to teach her child about the dangers of playing with fire, or why it's a bad idea to construct untethered catapults inside the house. That loose cannon of a child still lives in Crazy Machines Elements, a new physics-driven, "amateur inventor" puzzle game coming to Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network this Spring. Crazy Machines Elements, the first game in the series to land on HD consoles, has you completing partially constructed "chain reaction machines" by inserting specified objects into a sequence that contains items like conveyor belts, pinwheels and toy trucks. This game also allows you to harness the elements -- now, when you launch those Rube Goldberg and Heath Robinson statues into each other, they can both be on fire! You'll also be challenged to complete tasks with the fewest items possible, and let loose within the game's built-in editor. Consider it free license to build an incredible machine, but not The Incredible Machine. That's someone else's property.%Gallery-115495%
