Little White Bear Studios, an active participant in our forums, has released their second game for the iPhone and it’s called Zentomino [App Store]. Gameplay is similar to their previous title TanZen [App Store].
Find your Zen again, with Zentomino! Like its award winning sister game, TanZen, Zentomino takes you on an ever expanding journey of peaceful challenges. This time around, explore the world of pentominoes, where you must recreate a shape by using up to twelve differently shaped puzzle pieces. Like TanZen, you’ll be given a wide variety of puzzles, which will grow considerably over time!
The object of the game is to completely fill out the given silhouette with the pieces given. 144 different puzzles are offered in this first version and there’s no time limit to play against.
A gameplay video is provided by the developer:
App Store Link: Zentomino, $1.99
Wow! Looks awesome! And only $5.99!!!
Well, this is Wii Sports Golf on my iPhone. ;-)
I played a few minutes and I'm happy with the game. Unfortunately the Wifi-Multiplayer is only local. It would have been great playing against people from all over the world.
Looks good... im just wondering is it Local WiFi or over the internet WiFi?
It's only local WiFi, unfortunately.
I've waited for this game since the first screen-shots. I'm not disappointed.It plays just like Hot-Shots Golf and looks better too.Worth every penny @$5.99. Not too concerned about Wi-Fi being local or world-wide,although playing against someone across the globe would be a great addition.
Great game. No doubt. But I really miss an instant replay.
I'm sure you could still play remote multiplayer games over a VPN connection.
When is Golden Tee coming out for the iPhone? The "rolling ball" swing method makes PERFECT sense on a touch screen!
MAN!! I've been awaiting this game for so dang long ... now its out and downloaded, and my iPhone had to be sent to Apple for repair today (people couldn't hear me during calls), so I don't get to play it for 2 bloody weeks!! GRRRRRRRRR!!
Glad I have the game, though.
You should have it back within a week m8, just had mine repaired/replaced, it was collected Friday and replacement came following Wednesday.
@Adam:
Sad to hear that. My display is cracked bottom left corner, but it doesn't bother me as my view is still good. I'll send it to Apple when I think the crack is getting larger.
But I had to send my Wii to Nintendo these days (it didn't play discs anymore), that's why I'm happy I can play Let's Golf on the iPhone. ;-)
I'm really happy with Lets Golf!
Nice article Eli. (Eli?)...hmm.
The one thing I hope I'm overlooking, I cannot find the projected yardage of my clubs!? I find it hard to be really accurate a/o this. I know with the three click method it tells you how many % to aim for, but the better touch swing method(nice, very nice) I need to know how many yards a particular club is projected to hit. Like I said maybe I'm overlooking this, I hope so, but if it's just not there, that just ruins the touch swinging for me.
Btw, I have liked all the Hot Shots games, and yes this gives them a serious run for their worth, but one thing that gives Lets Golf! An edge over Hot Shots, to me, is LG is less "kiddie"! Hopefully someone can shed some light on my club dillema.
Your first impressions of Let's Golf are been positive? ;)
I don't get how the game is tracking your cumulative stats. Can you unlock higher levels with wins? How do you track that?

LOL, nevermind my "club yardage problem". In the upper right the gauge shows estimated "power" and it works accurately. I'd still prefer knowing the #'s, but at least now when putting, I don't way overshoot:D
Asked before but no answer: can someone please tell me if you can play the game with your own music? And does it let you keep the sfx like Rolando, Fastlane and Drop7 do?
@ kevlar x & capone:
Thanks guys ... your replies to my woes have made me feel better about my predicament.
Kudos, guys!
i have purchased my fair share of games for the iphone, including most of the higher end titles. most of these have failed to maintain my interest for much more than a day...until Let's Golf. This is IMHO easily the best game available for the iphone. Of course this is very much based on the types of game I like to play, but it is highly polished, challenging, and fun to play.
The only criticisms I have are not being able to turn off the character's audio. It gets rather annoying to have to listen to "Great Shot" or "Lets do this" (or whatever it is) etc hole after hole. I have the music turned off so it really stands out and gets old fast. Hopefully in a future update they will allow this feature to be turned off/down along with the game music.
question to those who own this: when you're in the middle of a hole and you either (a) get a call or (b) have to quit for any other reason by hitting the home button, is your progress saved? in Par 72, you're reset to the beginning of the current hole, which isn't that bad (specially if you landed in the drink!).
Super! It's great to see that such good games are coming to the app store:D
downloaded it not yet, but still waiting for reviews.
