LOOKS LIKE A CROSS BETWEEN WORLD OF GOO AND RAGDOLL BLASTER:

iPhone Game "Cut the Rope" Sells 1 Million Copies in 10 Days (Christina Warren, Oct 15, 2010, Mashable)

The game is called Cut the Rope. It's available for $0.99 for the iPhone and $1.99 for the iPad. Together, both versions have already sold more than 1 million copies in just 10 days.

The game, which has dethroned Angry Birds as the number one paid app in the U.S. App Store, was released just last week. Like Angry Birds, Cut the Rope is published by Chillingo. Although it was produced by a different developer (ZeptoLab), the game shares the same deceptively simple, addictive and replayable style.

According to Chillingo, 1 million paid downloads makes Cut the Rope the fastest-selling iOS game to date.

I purchased Cut the Rope last night after seeing it as the featured "game of the week" on my iPhone. Sure enough, it's a winner. I've since purchased it for my iPad as well and the game has that great, "just one more game" pull that is always a hallmark of a great mobile game.
