Spatial Reasoning Challenge
Drawn from traditional Chinese wood joinery techniques, 5th Invention presents a straightforward yet stimulating puzzle experience. Players are tasked with analyzing blueprints of wooden joints and assembling the pieces using simple on-screen actions such as tapping or removing components to successfully complete each puzzle.
Learn Through Play
The game’s “Museum” interface preserves blueprints encountered during missions. Players can dismantle each joint at will and explore a full 360-degree view to uncover the intricacies of Chinese wood joinery while also gaining insight into cultural history.
Unleash Your Imagination
The “Challenge” mode fosters an online community where players can share their own wood joint designs. This mode encourages creative expression as players craft puzzles for others to solve. 5th Invention thus offers both an engaging gameplay experience and a platform for applying acquired knowledge creatively.
