Released today for iOS and Android, Rovio uses the same level system that is in Angry Birds, but introduces an entirely new gameplay system for their game.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>\nAmazing Alex is a puzzle game that requires you to complete <strong>Rube Goldberg-style puzzles<\/strong>.  Adding different parts like shelves or scissors in the early levels to more complicated additions later on, Amazing Alex presents a problem and you have to find the solution.  While Angry Birds was an easier trial-and-error game throughout all the different versions, Amazing Alex requires creativity and planning to solve each level.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-26958\" title=\"Amazing Alex on iPhone\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2012\/07\/03.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"480\" height=\"320\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2012\/07\/03.jpg 480w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2012\/07\/03-120x80.jpg 120w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2012\/07\/03-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>There is still trial-and-error, but each mistake gives you a clue to solve a level, rather than Angry Birds&#8217; haphazard and minute adjustments to fire a particular bird.
