They’ve added 48 more puzzles to Aqueduct ($2.99, review here), despite the fact that I spent 48 minutes struggling to complete just one puzzle on World Three (I had to turn my iPhone sideways to finally see the solution). It’s a pity the game is so charming, because some of these puzzles make me want to tear my hair out.
The devs also inserted a new puzzle in the form of their “intuitive iPod Integration”. I had no idea what that meant, so I scoured every menu and screen of the app and tried to tap, double tap, and nose tap every portion of my iPhone I could think of in the hopes of finding slick pop-up controls.

Oh. Touché, Kieffer Bros. That is, indeed, so intuitive that I didn’t even notice the change.
