The guys from ARKick were at BlackBerry Jam Asia 2013 showing off a distinctly different kind of app than their augmented reality browser. Pastry Push is a deceptively simple puzzle game where players have to slide a cupcake into a monster's mouth through a series of teacup. Players are scored out of three stars based on how many swipes they make, and are challenged to pick up bonus objectives along the way.
There's certainly a "Cut the Rope" charm here, in that you're feeding a monster something delicious, but the gameplay is more akin ZeptoLab's other big title, Pudding Monsters. Pastry Push is coming to BlackBerry World in the next couple of days for a buck. Anyone looking for a cute, accessible puzzler, be sure to keep an eye out.
