About this game

Old secrets... Hidden answers... Little time.
Featuring the talents of Caldecott Medal-winning author and artist David Wiesner!
The Day the World Broke.
Can you fix it?
"Hey there! I'm Bud, one of the engineers for the World Works, the machine that runs the world. I know that probably surprises you, but really, we don't have time to explain now. See, we're having a little problem.
Something went wrong. I mean really wrong.
Earthquakes, floods in the desert, rivers drying up, flying cows... you get the picture. We think there might be something stuck in the machine... and, the biggest problem is... we need someone to help us out.
Listen, I gotta go- the Amazon just drained into the Sahara and all the camels are floating away!"
You must embark on a great quest, traveling to the center of the Earth to right what went wrong. Discover the secrets of your planet's past, uncover the lost world of the mechanimals, and do it fast. If you can't fix it, the future will be history!
