• Watch the Dutch National Ballet dancers in Boundens tutorial videos.
• Unlock 8 dances.
• Classical music composed by Bart Delissen.

Bounden was featured on the New York Times, the Guardian, BBC, The Verge, Mashable, Kotaku, GiantBomb, Joystiq, Destructoid, and many others.

Pros and cons of Bounden app for iPhone and iPad

Bounden app good for

The guys from Game Oven really nailed what a game on iPhone could be. They truly know how to use specific feature of the device to make beautiful games that engage the players. You have to buy Bounden and to play it with lovers, friends, and total strangers.
My wife and I just did the tutorial and the first dance it was hilarious. A digital take on twister with more movement.

Some bad moments

This game is the best use of mobile gameplay for art & interpersonal connections Ive seen in a long time!
I simply love it; Ive been playing with my wife and children all morning.
Play this with my girlfriend and we laugh and try to get better scores. It is rare to see such use of the gyroscope in iPhone games these days.
I cant wait to play this with my friends! Ever since I saw the videos for it, Ive been very excited waiting to try it. And now its here. Its whimsically wonderfully wacky fun.
Not only is this game a blast, its a testament to the power of technology to bring people together in new ways.
Such a pleasant challenge to do with my spatially challenged wife! Thank you for giving us hours of laughter and joy.
