Zen Bound 2 - iPhone 4

Zen Bound 2

£1.79/$2.99 A unique time-waster

Some activities, however trivial and pointless, just seem to have a strange hypnotic grip over humans. Developer Secret Exit knows this only too well, but rather than rest on its laurels after creating the original puzzler Zen Bound, it has taken triviality and pointlessness to a whole new level of the sublime with Zen Bound 2.

If you're late to the Zen party, here's the wrap. Paint a 3D wooden object using a given amount of rope. 
Yes, you heard right - wrap a bundle of  fibres around a beautifully rendered artifact and watch in awe as the enveloping cord oozes a lovely lacquer. Change the direction of the rope by twirling your iPhone 4, thereby activating the gyroscope. Progress hinges on earning flowers for the surface area covered, Accompanied by serene music, it's all oddly mesmerising. There are 100 levels to play through across nine different trees, each of which has a specific theme and orientation.

Resistance is futile: the simple concept, wily wooden craftwork and enhanced graphics will have you coming back again and again.
