    Hi everyone-

    So, my favorite puzzle games to date are:

    (1) Angry Birds (shocking, I know)
    (2) Cut the Rope
    (3) iSlash
    (4) Tiki Totems 2
    (5) Totemo

    I got Clowning Around, which is very similar to Cut the Rope. It was OK, but not great.

    I recently got World of Goo. I'm in the middle of playing it. It's pretty darn good, but I'm not in love with it.

    I also got Drop the Chicken. It was awesome for a while, but has now become so difficult (for me, at least) that it's lost some of its appeal.

    I also already have:

    (1) Arctic Shuffle
    (2) Catcha Mouse 1, 2 and 3
    (3) Chuck the Ball, and Ms. Chuck the Ball
    (4) Nintaii and Nintaii 2

    Hopefully that provides enough information for some great recommendations.

    Any recommendations would be appreciated.

    Thanks everyone.

    I played a game called Fragger that reminded me a bit of Angry Birds. It seems there are a couple lite versions too so you can try it out for yourself.

    Cover Orange is fantastic with overall terrific rating and very accessible. It's not overly difficult and has 180 stages to work through. Very enjoyable.

    Iblast Moki is also a lot of fun, gets challenging towards to the end but not impossible.

    And for something very relaxing you can try PathPix Pro...not really HARD, but enjoyable.

    ???..I bought all of the games he recommended, and they're all in my top 10 puzzle games of all time on the iOS..

    Well, Cover Orange might be top 15 actually, but it's still quite fun.

    I'd also recommend:

    -Beyond Ynth
    -Zen Bound 2
    -Cut the Rope
    -Helsing's Fire
    -Land-a Panda
    -Kami Retro
    -Karoshi
    -World of Goo

    There's my top 10, including PathPix and iBlast Moki. Don't really consider Angry Birds to be a puzzle game so it's not there. Yes, I know you already have Cut the Rope.

    Thanks to the several people who recommended Cover Orange. That game is great. I've already played the first 40 levels. I wouldn't quite put it on the same level of quality as some of the other games I mentioned, but it is a lot of fun.

    A couple of people mentioned iBlast Moki. I should have mentioned that in my original post. I do have that one, and have played it as far as I can go. I am completely stuck, and kind of lost interest in that one.

    I'm going to check out some of the other recommendations tonight and tomorrow.

    Save Toshi is a surprisingly fun, charmingly presented, physics puzzler allegedly in the style of Bloom Blox.

    I can't imagine you being stuck on any levels before the last world, so those shouldn't be the problem. Some of the levels in the last world are indeed very, very challenging..so here's solutions to just about every level from the last world plus help really for every other level that anyone could have possibly found challenging.

    Looks like you like casual puzzle games with easy-in-the-eyes graphics. I'm sure I missed some games but these are some of my recommendations:
    Amateur Surgeon 1/2 (My friends like to borrow my iPod to play this, I also love it, and since you like to cut & slash try give it a shot)
    Land-a Panda
    Cow Trouble
    A Monster Ate My Homework
    Tumbledrop
    Helsing's Fire
    Push Panic

    There are a lot of great puzzlers mentioned above, but most not really in the same themes you are talking about. But, there are some GREAT Puzzlers mentioned above.

    In keeping with your theme, check Trucks and Skulls - a sort of angry birds but with trucks and skulls. Very well supported.. They might have a lite.

    Burn the rope is in the vein of the types of puzzlers and quite challenging.



    Some all time greats - Zen Bound 1/2
    Helsings' Fire
    Chu Chu Rocket
    Osmos
    Aqueduct
    Toki Tori
    Geared 1/2
    Path Pix, PathPix Pro, and Path Pix Zen


    If you like lemmings type games, Spirits, and the new Caveman are worth a look. Caveman is done by the dev who ported the original lemmings to the Palm platform - a different theme, but faithful to the original game.
