Gorgeous-looking puzzler Contre Jour lands on Windows Phone

Chillingo has finally brought its Pocket Gamer Bronze Award-winning iPhone and iPad physics-puzzler Contre Jour to the Windows Phone Store, complete with new Xbox Live-powered achievements.

In Contre Jour, you're tasked with helping a small creature called Petit successfully navigate various treacherous stages without actually controlling the protagonist directly.

So, you have to morph and reshape landscapes, and utilise slingshots, tentacles, portals, and other gadgets to achieve your goal.

The Windows Phone adaptation of this title features the same 100 levels that you'll find in the iOS version, but also contains several new stages in an exclusive Mango World pack.

The first thing you'll notice when you fire up Contre Jour (or look at the screenshots in our gallery above) is its Limbo-esque visuals, which are rather stunning to say the least.

Definitely give this game a whirl, even if you only download the free trial.

If you do want to purchase the full Contre Jour experience, it'll set you back £2.29 in the UK and $2.99 in the US. You can either click this link or scan the QR code below to be taken straight to the Windows Phone Store.
