For those of you in search of diversions, here’s a peculiar little Flash puzzle called Grow. It’s one of those puzzles in which the first step towards solving it is figuring out what the hell you’re looking at—a form to which I am particulary vulnerable. Enjoy.

There are at least three ‘best answers,’ which all take you to the same end result and a score of 20,000. If you’re tired of banging your head against the wall, though, here’s the one I figured out: Cube, ladder, sun-ball, egg, mountain, pipe, propeller, tornado, gear, dish, rocket, screen. But don’t peek until you’ve given it a good whack. It’s worth the experimentation, and some of the ‘wrong’ answers are themselves entertaining.

OK, so what the fuck is that then?

Um…It’s a “planet,” I think. Upon which various elements, when placed upon the planet, interact with one another. The order in which they are placed upon its surface determines the degree to which each element gets nudged along its developmental path by its neighbors.
