Monument Valley - a puzzle to the aesthetes

Inspired by the works of artist Maurits Escher, the developers of this toy have created a unique multi-dimensional world in which the fundamental laws of physics - a solid convention. And the sooner you accept this fact, the easier it will get used to this "Monument Valley". :)

You probably know the picture in which one dimension of a smooth transition to another, confined to an endless chain. Or when objects that are obviously far away, suddenly closed them all, that in the foreground. It's all tricks of the imp art, artistic direction, the brightest representative of which - just that Maurits Escher.

In Monument Valley, the same principles of three-dimensional surrealism: vertical, horizontal and inclined planes imperceptibly substitute for each other, moving smoothly from the distal and proximal to the plan on the contrary. As well as gravity does not always acts upwards. And the levels themselves only at first glance static - always somewhere hidden button, lever, or even mobile platforms that abruptly change the overall architecture, opening a new section of track.

At first it is confusing, especially when you consider that the decision of optical illusions - not an end in itself. This is just an obstacle on the path from point A to point B, which must pass a silent princess Ida. But when are comfortable, the movement process will bring a lot more fun than reaching another point of reference.

Bright picture of psychedelic colors very well complements the background music and game sounds, and the insertion of the story comprehension "sacred geometry" is quite concise and not too torn by all these spatial solutions puzzles. :)

I purposely did not want to compare the Monument Valley with any other toy because any comparison is very conventional and rough. This is just another example of a unique product, which lives by itself and no one competes. Therefore, to play this game a must. You will not regret.
