Zen Bound® is a calm and meditative puzzle game about wrapping wooden sculptures with rope. A game in which a high score is not the goal - instead it is something to focus on and enjoy at your own relaxed pace.

It is a tactile experience: a game of wood, stone and rope with some of the most beautiful graphics seen on the iPhone. The visuals complement the controls to provide interaction that feels natural and comfortable.

A major element of the game is the unique, dusty and soothing down-tempo soundtrack designed and composed by Ghost Monkey. It features binaural processing that creates an enveloping soundscape when headphones are used.

Zen Bound® is different - an alternative and subtle gaming experience that is difficult to describe. But in its own small way, it defines what gaming on the iPhone can be.

FEATURES:
- Beautiful graphics, 3D models almost feel tangible in your hand
- Intuitive and natural multi-touch controls (tilt supported)
- 76 levels
- A captivating 22-minute downtempo soundtrack from Ghost Monkey

Pros and cons of Zen Bound® app for iPhone and iPad

Zen Bound® app good for

Ive read some people in reviews saying "if there is one App you should get..." this is that App. This App shows off the iPhone to its limits and a little beyond. Incredibly tactile, Beautiful graphics, great relaxing music, more an experience, than a game. I just wish I would have bought this earlier, Ive now sent this link to all my friends even those with out an iPhone. One final word that sums up this App, Beautiful

Takes a bit of practice but quite a different way to play on your Apple devices!!!! GRAB IT WHILE IT IS FREE!!!!!!!!!!!

But the glowing nail is really hard to touch. I had to tap on it FOREVER to pass the level. A little frusturating... Update Nvm i think i just messed up... This game is SOOO AWESOME GET IT WHILE ITS FREE! 

Its addictive after you learn how the game works, and gets a little more challenging with each level you try to 100%.

This is a really good game and the graphics are solid as hell

you somehow made wrapping string around a block of wood fun.

Some bad moments

SO sad when a great app is not updated in 6 years.... it looks like an iphone 3 app now... byebye

its a different game. trying to paint wood by wraping it. lets time fly by. and somewhat addicting.

When you want to take a break from arcade games or Angry Birds, check this out! Calming music, amazing graphics, and challenging yet meditative gameplay. A definite must for someone who likes something a little different.

I did all of the lil wooden animals and now I cant get past 15/15 it keeps saying 13/15 when I completed all of the wooden things :o

Relaxing when you settle down enough to think outside the box.

This game destresses me. It helps me take a step back and it also helps me sleep. Well worth the price, especially if you are a stressed person.
