Amazing Alex is a game made by Rovio, the makers of Angry Birds. It came out in July 2012 after a trailer was shown in June 2012. The game lets you move many toys to make cool machines.
What Is Amazing Alex?
Amazing Alex is a physics puzzle game. You get to play with 35 fully interactive objects. These objects can bounce, pop, ricochet, bash and crash. You can join them together to make a Rube Goldberg device. A Rube Goldberg device is a long, funny machine that does a simple job in a complicated way.
The game has 100 challenging levels. These levels are split into four fun‑filled locations. Each location looks different and has its own style.
How the Game Works
When you start a level, you see a goal. The goal might be to move a ball to a target or to make a toy fall. You have to place the objects in the right spots. Then you tap the screen to start the chain reaction.
Because the objects are fully interactive, they react to each other. For example, a ball can bounce off a trampoline, hit a lever, and then push a block. The game uses real‑world physics, so the motion feels natural.
Things You Can Do in the Game
- Build many solutions: There is more than one right answer. You can try different ways to finish a level.
- Share your creations: After you finish a level, you can share your solution with friends. You can see how others solved the same puzzle.
- Explore four locations: Each location has its own theme, like a kitchen, a garden, a workshop, and a playground.
- Play on many devices: The game launched on iOS, Android and later on Windows Phone 8 in April 2013.
Where to Play and Find Levels
You can download Amazing Alex from the App Store or Google Play. The game is free to try, but some extra objects may need a purchase. The Windows Phone version is available on the Microsoft Store.

Tips for New Players
1. Watch the objects move: Before you tap, look at how each object will react.
2. Start simple: Use the smallest number of objects first. Then add more if needed.
