Er...yes...sorry about that. My initial thought was that the vast majority of people on the forum had already known about the game (so I'd simply need to give those people a heads-up, as it were, about the pre-order and the release of the demo), but then I realized that that was a silly assumption, so I'd returned to the forum to elaborate just a bit and I spotted Jatopian's (good-natured) post. Oops.
Machinarium is a point-and-click adventure/puzzle game from Amanita Design, the team responsible for
Samorost. The art and style of this game are truly amazing—each and every bizarre screen was painstakingly (and beautifully) drawn by hand.
"
Set in the eponymous city of Machinarium, the game follows the plight of a young, scruffy robot called Josef, dismissed from society and literally chucked away with the rubbish. Sneaking back into the city, you learn of a terrible plot to blow the entire place up—and, naturally, it's up to you to prevent that from happening."
Here is a link where the game was first mentioned and discussed on our forum:

And here, more appropriately, is a link to the official site:
