Idle Friday has announced the official launch of Automatoys, letting players get their hands on the unique puzzle game on iOS. The premium title is free to play for the first two levels, with a one-time purchase to unlock the rest of the game at $2.99 or your local equivalent.

In Automatoys, players can expect to tinker around with gorgeous digital toys where you simply have to help a wayward little ball get to its destination safely. Perhaps the game's description says it best: "Insert Coin. Dispense Ball. Tap, turn, tilt and spin the contraptions to help each ball hop and roll its way to victory. Each Automatoy is a unique mechanical obstacle course."

The game features lovely visuals that replicate the tactical feel of these toy mechanisms in real life. While the machines look complex, the controls are simple to help players outpace the clock and beat their own high score. A relaxing soundtrack serenades players in the background as well, and you can actually listen to the chill beats on Spotify if you'd like.

If you're keen on joining in on the fun, you can catch Automatoys on the iOS App Store. The Android version will soon follow sometime this year as well. You can join the community of followers over on the official Twitter page to stay updated on all the latest developments, visit the official website to learn more info about the developer, or take a little sneak peek at the embedded gif above to get a feel of the game's vibes, visuals and mechanics as well.
