Try expanding the game area to keep the field and touch controls together. For 3D games, use an up-to-date browser with WebGL enabled and lower the in-game graphics settings if needed. Some titles recommend landscape orientation.

Reloading may discard unsaved progress. Browser site-data cleanup can delete saves; avoid it as a first step.

For an unavailable embed or blocked game storage, open the game directly in a new tab . Use Close expanded view to exit the enlarged game; keys pressed inside an external game are handled by that game.

About this game

Lost City of Mechanisms is an original puzzle adventure by MEST. Its three chapters move from a water-powered workshop to a mirror garden and then to a gravity-focused core. Each room presents a small mechanical problem: move the explorer through a compact space, push a box onto a pressure plate, operate a fixed control, or change the state of a mechanism so a path becomes usable. Later puzzles combine systems. Water can raise or lower floating platforms, mirrors route light toward its target, and a gravity compass changes how special boxes travel. The game makes those rules part of the level rather than hiding them in a separate action system, so observation and planning are more useful than quick movement. Its room descriptions and hints explain the intended interaction, and the save system tracks chapter progress in the browser. The original interface is in Chinese; this page gives an English introduction while the in-game text remains as published by MEST. Scripts, graphics, and the Three.js runtime load from MEST’s external game host after Start game. Mobile play uses a landscape layout, and the game pauses while the device is held vertically. Lost City of Mechanisms is MEST's original work and is marked all rights reserved.

How to play

Move around each room and push movable boxes onto plates or into useful positions. Stand beside a mechanism before operating it. Read the room hint, then check how a change to water, light, or gravity affects the available route. On a phone, rotate to landscape to continue play.

Tips

Before pushing a box, make sure you can still reach the side needed for the next move; boxes cannot be pulled back. Use a dry bank before changing the water level so you do not strand the explorer. Treat mirrors and gravity controls as route tools: make one change at a time, then inspect the room again. The game includes a restart option for recovering from a blocked position.
