Monument Valley: Beautiful Game Set in a World of Impossible Architecture

April 6, 2014

Created by ustwo, Monument Valley is a beautiful and remarkable game. Playing with perspective, your goal is to move the architecture around, enabling a young girl named Ida to pass through.

Fans of M. C. Escher will draw a lot of pleasure from this game, for all its angles and impossible walkways. It’s a gorgeous game, and I found myself at several turns leaning over to Liz, saying ‘Oh my god, look at this.’

The game comes at a bit of a price – $3.99, which is more than your dollar app. That said though, it’s an amazing game that’s as much fun to look at, as it is to play. Worth the splurge (though I’ve heard reports that there are only 10 levels).
