Inside Physicus: Save the World with Science!

What it is

A point-and-click adventure and digital learning game for physics.

The player moves through several levels and has to investigate different locations, collect objects and use them in other places and solve physics puzzles in order to progress through the game. The narrated knowledge base covers the following areas of physics: optics, mechanics, acoustics, electricity and thermodynamics.

The premise

Returning from a long journey from outer space, the player receives a call for help from a professor: a meteorite has crashed into the small home planet and brought the rotation to a standstill, making one hemisphere unbearably hot and the other unbearably cold - only an impulse machine can get the planet going again. The player's task is to use the professor's notes to complete the machine and save the planet.
