Zen Bound 2 is the ideal way to experience the full capabilities of the Joy-Con’s gyro sensor. I don’t think any game has come close to this since 1-2 Switch, but that game wasn’t very fun or engaging for longer than a short party. Here, we have an expertly crafted puzzle game that will keep you captivated for a very long time. Ignore the fact that this is an eight-year-old game as it has been renewed for a long, welcome life on the Switch.

What was a wonderfully intuitive and thoroughly relaxing process on iOS (especially the iPad version) is a bit more of a challenge when you reduce it to mouse control, though. The ability to physically twist and rotate the object with instant precision becomes somewhat less instant when you're just manipulating the object via a pointer though if you're lucky enough to own a Macbook with a multi-touch pad, it's functionally identical to the original, and therefore completely lovely (albeit at twice the price). With 100 levels to get yourself in a knot over, Zen Bound 2 does exactly what it sets out to do: calm and soothe.
