Those little "flaps" were hard to cover.
Well, I’m a couple days late in posting about it, but… Zen Bound, is out on the Ovi Store. A port from a best seller in the iPhone App Store, this could be the best game (or a close second to Sonic games on PicoDrive, but yeah) to get out just for the N900, specially with MeeGo coming on.
Premise is simple: you have a wooden “thing,” you rotate it with the touchscreen in order to wrap it with rope. When the rope touches the wooden block, it marks the area surrounding it with “paint”. The objective is to get the maximum possible of the thing covered in paint. It’s more challenging than it sounds, yet the feeling of completing a level is oddly fulfilling. It’s hard to get the feel across just with words, so go watch a video of it.
Support the platform of your choice, I asked before when talking about Gravity for Symbian, and I’m asking the same here. It looks great, it has a lot of levels, gameplay is really spot on, it is worth the 5 bucks they’re asking for.
PS. It wouldn’t be a post by me if it didn’t have just a little bit of complaining (:P), so here it goes: It doesn’t respect the system-wide volume controls (technical limitation, or so I’ve heard) and it should have an easier way to zoom out from the block, when the rope goes off-screen (unless I missed something.)
