Twister-Like iPad Game Finger Tied Finally Comes To iPhone Through Finger Tied Jr.
May 23, 2013
Finger Tied, the Twister-like iPad game released by Streaming Colour Studios last October, has finally been optimized for iPhone and iPod touch in the form of Finger Tied Jr.
As in Finger Tied, whose trailer you can watch below, you have to fill in shapes in Finger Tied Jr. using up to four fingers without lifting a finger or going out of bounds.
But Finger Tied Jr. is no mere port of Finger Tied. On the contrary, Finger Tied Jr. contains all new levels designed with the iPhone and iPod touch's smaller screen in mind. Which is just as well, seeing as most of the levels in Finger Tied can be completed only on the iPad or iPad mini's bigger screen.

Finger Tied Jr. has over 85 puzzling levels right out of the box. But if you want to play more, you can create and share your own puzzles using the game's built-in puzzle editor. Alternatively, you can download levels created and shared by your fellow frequently finger-tied players.
Optimized for iPhone and iPod touch running iOS 5.0 or later, Finger Tied Jr. is available now in the App Store for $0.99.
The original Finger Tied for iPad is, of course, still available in the App Store, for a couple of dollars more.
"Finger Tied is quite a bit different from the typical puzzle games that you will find in the App Store, and it’s surprisingly fun to master these tactile challenges," wrote Juli in her review of the game here on AppAdvice. "If you’re looking for a puzzle game that’s both unique and tough to master, Finger Tied is an excellent choice."
Apple itself thought so, too, as it included Finger Tied under the New Ways to Play category in its App Store Best of 2012 feature.
