Zen Bound 2 is a meditative puzzle game of wrapping rope around wooden sculptures. It is a tactile game, with a focus on making wood and stone look and feel real and believable.
The highlights of Zen Bound 2 are its controls and its atmosphere. The game teakes full advantage of tilt and multi-touch and feels natural and comfortable to play. The dusty and soothing atmosphere is a combination of beautiful visuals and a unique soundtrack by 'Ghost Monkey'.
🌍️ Wikipedia:
Zen Bound is a puzzle game for the iOS, Android, and Maemo platforms (Nokia N900), developed by Secret Exit. It was announced on September 5, 2008 via the company's discussion board, and officially released via the App Store on February 24, 2009, and via Ovi Store on June 16, 2010. A port to Android was announced as part of the Humble Bundle for Android 2 on March 19, 2012. The game has received press attention for its unique gameplay. A lite version of the game was also released for free which featured 2 levels of the game. A sequel, Zen Bound 2, released on the Nintendo Switch in Europe and North America on May 24, 2018.
Gameplay
The goal of the game is to paint various objects. In each level the player is given an object with an attached rope which varies in length depending on the level. Using a mouse or touch screen and tilt controls, the player attempts to wrap the object with the rope. Each time the rope is laid down on the object, the area near the rope gets covered by paint. The challenge is getting the required percentage of an object painted with only a finite length of rope. There are three targets in each level - minimum, medium and maximum coverage.
Some levels require nails protruding from the objects to be entwined in rope rather than having to cover the object's surface.

Un jeu de réflexion dont l'objectif est d'arriver à peindre 75% d'un objet en l'entourant d'une cordelette, par le studio Secret Exit (Jetro Lauha), portage Linux par Edward Rudd.
Zen Bound 2 est un jeu de réflexion dont l'objectif est d'arriver à peindre au moins 75% de la surface de l'objet présenté en l'entourant d'une cordelette : chaque tour de la cordelette a pour effet de peindre une partie de la zone recouverte.
Le jeu n'est pas si simple qu'il n'y parait car la corde est tendue et le joueur devra être prudent lorsqu'il passe les coins arrondis ou les clous, car elle peut se déloger et ainsi réduire à néant plusieurs minutes de positionnements délicats. De plus la corde a une longueur limitée : le joueur ne peut se contenter d'ensevelir l'objet pour le couvrir de peinture.
