In the old days, an indication that you are playing an addictive game was literally rubbing your fingers raw and getting thumb cramps. On the iPhone, a sure indication is that your screen is so dirty from your finger grease that you cannot make out the game itself.

Tiki Towers gets very high marks for its addictive-ness; though is does not score so high for difficulty. I could not put the game down from the minute I got, but I cruised through all the levels without a big hiccup. At most, it took me no more than 2-3 tries to get a level solved. As an example of a game that is very difficult, and thus more challenging, look at Fieldrunners. It is very difficult to finish the levels with a perfect score, and has had me playing for months

The graphics are excellent, the physics of the game play are fantastic, and the game provides a great new twist on puzzle solving.

From the official iTunes entry:
Travel between five tropical islands leading your tribe of monkeys to safety by building bridges and towers out of bamboo, coconuts, and vines. If you're not careful, your structures will collapse and your monkeys will perish. Clear all the levels to acquire the ceremonial masks of an ancient tribe and discover their mythical lost treasure.

• 5 different islands and 45 challenging levels
  
• Build bridges and towers using bamboo, coconuts and vines
  
• Realistic physics - bamboo structures will bend, break, and collide with the environment
