We caught a glimpse of Chillingo's fascinating new steampunk puzzle game Cogs a week or two back, and Jon was more than a little impressed.

"It's one of the highest quality puzzle games we've seen in terms of its production quality, and it's one that mixes a simple user interface with some very brain-twisting situations," he explained in a hands on preview with the newly adapted iPhone version.

Cogs requires you to build increasingly complex machinery using sliding tiles and the gears, pipes, balloons, chimes, hammers, wheels, and props attached to them.

This steampunk great egg race pits you against the clock in a visually stunning game, and comes fully loaded with Chillingo's Crystal social gaming network so you can boast about your mechanical achievements more easily.

Hit the App Store button to go and take a look, and here's a gameplay video from developer Lazy 8 Studios to get you into gear.

Yes. Spanner's his real name, and he's already heard that joke you just thought of. Although Spanner's not very good, he's quite fast, and that seems to be enough to keep him in a regular supply of free games and away from the depressing world of real work.
