IGN: Elefunk Review

Engineering can be a rather complex subject, one that doesn't necessarily translate over to games well. In fact, most of the titles that have featured a significant focus on the discipline have had much more of a Rube Goldberg-like angle to the gameplay, like the engaging The Incredible Machine series. But moving away from the fantastical devices, what about something that is engaging and slightly educational about structural integrity? If that's the kind of experience you're looking for, you may have found it in Elefunk, a new title from 8bit and Sony Computer Entertainment that mixes elements of Jenga, an erector set and animated wildlife to create an amusing puzzle title, as long as you can forgive the extremely high learning curve present.
