In a nutshell, the goal of the game is very straightforward. Soon you’re lost somewhere between your thoughts and the world of Zen Bound. Instinctively, you slowly start painting the familiarly shaped figure by wrapping the string around it. And in that moment, all what matters is just the rotating wooded figure in front of you, and the string that is attached to it. It creates a cushion that surrounds the player with it’s own pace, own rules, and brings the player to an almost zen-like state where time is the least important factor.
There’s a good reason why the music is such an essential part for this game. It’s best enjoyed together with headphones thanks to it’s excellent ambient track that silently hums just underneath a mixture of bell and rope-like sounds that accompany the gameplay. Zen Bound is a very slow, relaxing type of gaming experience. There’s just so many unique things about it, and the more it makes me happy to see such game find it’s way to the N900.
The tittle alone surfaces a string of warm memories that I treasured ever since I played this strange puzzle type game on my iTouch. Does anyone still recalls the few 3D games – Jurassic 3D Rollercoaster or Kroll – that were demoed quite a while ago? To close the circle of this story, among those games was Zen Bound, and it’s finally here  in Nokia’s Ovi Store!

SPB Brain Evolution, while a different sort of game altogether, also excelled with it’s suite of 12 different mini challenges designed to train user’s memory and puzzle solving skills.īut ever since the long awaited PR1.2 update for the N900 was released, Nokia was strangely silent on the other half of promise, mainly a new wave of content that ought to come to N900.

The free version offers a healthy amount of physics infused puzzle levels to dive into, and there’s also additional level pack available at a price for those unable to resist the addictive formula. Angry Birds, for example, became a welcome smash hit the moment it appeared in the Ovi Store. But looking past that, it did manage to show what the N900 hardware is rightly capable of with a drop of commitment from game developers. But it’s easy to spot the ultimate reasons for the lack of quality tittles for N900: the user base is very niche, and the still evolving Ovi Store only recently started to distribute paid content for N900 owners.īut then there are a few exceptions. In fact, we started to expect as much, ever since the graphically impressive Bounce Evolution never went past being just a fancy tech demo. Good games on Maemo 5 is a rare occurrence, sadly.
