The most critically acclaimed iPhone and iPod Touch game ever.
A calm and meditative game of wrapping rope around wooden sculptures.
Something to be enjoyed at a slow pace: a game where a high score is not the goal. Zen Bound is designed to challenge in a subtle way, it does not attack or force the player.
Zen Bound is a game of stone, wood and rope; much effort was put into making them feel right. Above all, we focus on playability and polish.
Zen Bound features an original musical score and sound effects by Ghost Monkey. Original concept and coding by Mikko 'Memon' Mononen, of modest demoscene experience and previously in lead engineer position for Crysis.
