App of the Day: Aquaria

Welcome to CNET Australia's App of the Day, where you can see some of the coolest, silliest and most useful apps in action.

I think I'm just a little bit in love with iPad games. More and more, we're seeing titles that really do go the whole nine yards. One such title is Aquaria — an independent PC port. You play Naija, an aquatic humanoid who, in what's possibly the most overused plot device in video games, starts the game with amnesia. OK, we concede, the plot's a little on the tired side, but the game is so lovely to play it really doesn't matter much. As you explore the massive and gorgeous underwater world, you'll uncover Naija's memories and use her song to find treasures and defeat monsters. It's really just stunning.
