Russia-based HeroCraft is releasing Cuboid for iOS, which is described as a “stunning 3D puzzle game in which players navigate ancient ruins and lush environments, maneuvering a rectangular block through mystical exits.” The previous best selling title on the PlayStation Network is now available as a free download for iPad, iPhone and iPod touch, though you get only so much for free. The full game features 77 “twisted puzzles” and 3 “vibrant environments”, challenging players in a “variety of mind-bending ways” to flip and rotate the game’s main object — the ancient artifact Cuboid – to stand on and pass through a level’s mystical exit as fast and with as few moves as possible, all-the-while being careful not to fall off the map.
The game starts with simple concrete surfaces, though as you advance, you are faced with more complex obstacles such as fragile tiles, switches, teleporters, or levels that impose move limits to complete the maps.
All in all, you’ll have a ton of fun playing Cuboid. It’s one of those games that will make waiting in the queue much more bearable “experience.” Check out the short demo video below to see with your own eyes what’s it all about…

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
