    All told, this is without question one of the best games on the App Store, and we strongly suggest downloading it immediately.

    Replay value is good, as you'll likely need a few retries to hit upon the 3-feather solutions for all levels. Once you have, though, there isn't a lot to draw you back in, except to solve puzzles faster to raise your scores.

    Rope Rescue provides a decent challenge and caters for different skill levels. The best players will aim for three feather per level, while more casual players can just aim to complete levels.

    Rope Rescue is a pretty novel game, and puzzle freaks who aren't driven away by the high challenge level will have a good time with it.

    Rope Rescue HD is an average Angry Birds-style game with few new wrinkles.

    At its best, the game resembles a side-on Zen Bound, but the gradual introduction of arcade elements ends up being a frustration, since your finger too often obscures the action.
