It's not just a game. It's art. The escheresque visuals are absolutely beautiful. The game is not hard, occasionally challenging but never frustratingly difficult. I find it pleasing to look at and very relaxing especially with the calming background music. The game play is a mix of Rubik's cube and Escher-like geometry. The actual story stays pleasently vague and mythical. The game is reasonably short with interesting variations. Not a waste of time but quite worth it.

Actually a perfect game. I love everything about it, no notes. It's so simple yet so complex and the puzzles are mind-bending but never frustrating. Minus one star only because it is so very short. Had I known it only has 10 levels I probably wouldn't have purchased it. Played through in less than a day even having bought the extra levels.

Ah, how have I not written a review for this yet? We must fix that... Monument Valley is, now, a beautiful puzzle game that will delight you. When it was released, however, it was a transformative redefinition of what a mobile experience could be. This game was a massive turning point in the entire platform ecosystem, where ustwo looked at a sea of trash floating in bad UI, & rose the bar about 67 stories above, not just the competition, but the companies defining the platform. A true classic.
