Nintaii 2 is a classic puzzle game in which you move a rectangular block of wood around one of 100 levels in an attempt to stand it on it’s end on top of a marked square.

While the premise is simple, implimentation of the concept is more than just a tad more difficult due to extra interactive tiles on the game board. For example it doesn’t take but a couple of levels before the challenge is doubled by requiring you to lower the target tile by first landing on a second tile to activate the sequence.

Movement of the piece is done by either swiping your finger across the piece (in the direction you wish it to move) or, if you want to make the game even more challenging, turn on the accelerometer and move the block by tilting your iPhone. I personally found this option very difficult.

During the course if playing each level you can move the board around simply by using 2 fingers instead of one. Speaking of the board, the graphics in this game are stunning. That makes the solving of each level even more enjoyable.

While you are not racing against a clock to solve each level, you do want to try to solve it in as few moves as possible. As with many other games, Nintaii 2 utilizes Open Fient to keep track of your position on the online leader board.

While there is a free Lite version I don’t think you will wait too long before snapping up the full version considering the very reasonable price of $0.99.
