Just in case if you're wondering what Astroslugs is all about, here's some information on it:
Astroslugs is a colorful and soothing puzzle board game for your iPad, iPhone & iPod Touch. The game is set in a long forgotten age "when the universe still looked like an old parchment". It features the highly intelligent Astroslugs who travel through space and visit far-away planets to gather the prized Slug Energy. To support the Astroslugs you solve mind-boggling puzzles by drawing different shaped pieces onto an always varying board. In addition to that, it several awards and was Apple's iPad Game of the Week.
If you're not up for paying the initial cost right away, there's also a free, lite version available to give it a test run as well. In the mean time though, I highly recommend this game, especially if it's on sale.]]> Heads up folks — the prices for Astroslugs and Astroslugs HD have suddenly been cut to $0.99 and $1.99 respectively.
