Alien Worlds Explorer is a weird combination of inspirations. 1.) Star Trek episode "City on the Edge of Forever". I like the idea of looking into a windows to other places and times. 2.) Colorforms. Those vinyl sticker toys. 3.) Mighty Men and Monster Maker.
I like creative toys. Unfortunately many old analogue creative toys (Lego-type toys aside) are rather limited and the enjoyment shallow. I'm hoping A.W.E. will provide a bit more depth and stimulation. I guess that's the best any toy or game designer can hope for.
