Contre Jour

Contre Jour gets its hooks in you right from the start-- and what beautiful hooks they are.

If you're looking for the next gem for smartphones and iPad, it may very well be Contre Jour. This puzzle-game with a poetry twist draws inspirations from Limbo for its visuals, World of Goo for its drops, Portal for its... portals, Cut the Rope for its mechanics combining dexterity and brains. A very nice blend of many different elements that fit together very well.

Contre Jour doesn't break any new ground, but still its unique graphic style, gorgeous music and solid gameplay make it a must-buy for puzzle lovers.

A clever puzzle game with solid mechanics that cements Chillingo's position as one of the iOS heavyweights.

A game that feels so inviting that you'd be a fool to turn away. Come to the light.

Contre Jour offers a unique gameworld alongside a particularly attractive atmosphere. Throw in an endearing character and proven play mechanics and you've got a serious competitor to Cut the Rope.

Contre Jour manages to successfully ape some of the App Store's most popular mechanics, but it doesn't really know what it wants to do with them.
