Product Information
Connections, subtitled "It's a mind game!," is from Some Entertainment and Discovery Channel Multimedia and expands on James Burke's three series Connections, Connections 2, and Connections 3. The premise is based on a fractured universe where chaos is the rule and order is the exception. Knowledge of science, invention, and history is necessary in order to re-establish broken links between people, events, and ideas found in mankind's historical past.<br><br>These series show how common household items and ideas that are used by us everyday can be connected in strange and unusual ways -- ways that most histories never show. As an example, players must reconstruct chains of connections showing how cubic zirconium diamonds are connected to pencils, phosphorus, and carbon paper, among other things.<br><br>Players must construct chains to show how they are interconnected and make it strong enough to keep it from disintegrating. When players find things that fit into the "web" (fabric of the chain construction), James Burke appears and tells them about the items and what other items might be related to it, albeit in general terms.Product Identifiers
