Incredible experience! I don't often write reviews, especially for phone games. But this was truly a unique experience. Never has a puzzle game left me so satisfied and wanting more than this game, I was sad when it was over and immediately bought the extra levels and was not disappointed in the slightest. The sounds, music, and the look and feel of this game are incredible! Very reminiscent of Journey. The puzzles are beautifully made, very simple but challenging. Controls work very well, only complaint is there isn't more.

A Masterpiece This is the first mobile game I've ever played that's so good that it warrants mobile gaming as a significant gaming platform. The art, music, gameplay and everything about it is beautiful and coated in polish. I love the Escher vibe to it and the intelligent level design, especially in forgotten shores. This is one of those rare titles that I will never stop recommending to people. On a side note, it was awesome seeing the game referenced in House of Cards, it deserves every bit of publicity it can get.

An app without equal This is the first and only gaming app I've bought thus far. Its game play wherein which its music, ui, play style makes it an app unlike any other. The creators of this game are absolutely brilliant to have come up with such a remarkable app. They have also inspired me to code an app of my own. I could sing no higher praise to the creators and their app. I would highly recommend everybody to download and try this app for it will surely bring you an experience that'll be entirely and absolutely different.

Leaves Me Speechless Words cannot describe the incredible awesomeness of this game. The geometry of the levels is absolutely mind-blowing and it is fun and challenging in all the great ways a game can be. The developers have made an absolute masterpiece and there are no other games out there that come close to this one. You cannot go wrong in downloading this game. It is worth WAY more than the price. I just hope they come up with more levels. I could play hundreds of them. UPDATE: I bought/downloaded the added 8 levels and they are incredible. WELL worth the $.

Eye-catching & Beautiful! Words can't describe how happy I am for buying this gem. I was sceptic regarding how reviews used to say that this game is short. But really, now I don't care - the music is legendary, the game looks astonishingly great and gameplay is so intuitive. One of the best gaming experiences of all time for me. Just GEDDIT!

Beautiful and surprising Every chapter, invariably at some point, made me chuckle and say, "oh!". Completed all three major sections and definitely want more. Thinking there is fun still to be had with replaying. And family content means everyone can play. This is a large download and significantly drains my battery, but worth it.

Flawless This game is one of the most beautiful games I've ever played. It's simplistic design & stunning colors transport you into another world. The story was simple yet beautiful as well. I never had any problems with the game freezing or skipping. It's very fluid. Very addictive game. Played through Ida's dream and expansion the day they came out. My only criticism for this game would be there aren't enough levels. I wish they were going to continue making more. :( def worth every penny.
This is the first mobile game i have ever paid for, and i have to say it did not disappoint. The graphics, interface, music and gameplay all complement each other perfectly. I finished the main story and purchased the expansion without hesitation. My only criticism is that the game is too short and i hope the developers are working on more levels. Despite this, i would purchase - and repurchase this game any day of the week. It is flawless and is unparallelled by any game - it will leave you speechess :)
Climaxed too early! Over too soon :( Visually beautiful! This is a breath of fresh air in a guns, bombs, fast cars and zombie dominated world. I couldn't get enough of it and didn't stop playing until it was completed. That said it was over far, far, far too quickly. The game guides you through so the levels are/can seem easy as there is no wrong way to play. It is just a matter of how quickly you will figure it out. All that said I did pay to play the extra levels as I couldn't get enough of it. I Look forward to more, more than 10 levels!
I paid £5 for a game, had only about 25 levels, finished it in 1 day and I WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZED! The game is so worth it! Stunning graphics with very unique and ambient atmosphere, cute and appropriate Ida's reactions and what most important - very catchy, developed logical riddles. Sacred geometry made it a gem of GooglePlay. I am very sad that the game is over and have a hopes that developers will be adding more levels. Please please please!
Best Game ever! This is the 2nd time I've bought this game. Bought for Kindle a few years back 2012 or 13 ... t's been over a year sense the 3rd extension pack came out, & was hoping for another. I miss the game so hell, why not buy again. 😏 Anyone who's considering not buying for financial reasons ..I mean come on. . It's 4 bucks . (+ Extensions if desired)..this amount of entertainment, enjoyment & critical thinking & awareness under $10 in this world today is a steal!
This game. This game is an art form that's been long lost. Think MC Escher gone even weirder at times. It will make you think, and question reality. See a gap? Turn the world and make it disappear. Need to get around to a button? twist the world. The game is just simply amazing, and has an equally amazing ambient soundtrack. It is well worth the money, and even the DLC is too.
Too short for the price you pay Absolutely stunning game. Graphics are smooth and the gameplay is the most unique gaming experience I've had in a while. But the fact that its a paid app and you can finish both gamemodes in under two hours annoys me, and then the game has the balls to ask you to buy more levels! Tldr; Amazing game but much too short to justify price. 8/10
What this game lacks in length, it has in depth. Every aspect is thoroughly designed and it shows. The artwork is stunning, filled with detail and lovingly crafted. The gameplay is so smooth that you almos don't realize how complex are the puzzles; manipulating this strange world with bizarre geometry becomes second nature right from the start. And the sound design is just perfect. Every interaction with the world highlighted with beautiful sounds that don't feel out of place. Every part of the game comes together in a lovely whole.
You don't play this game as much as you experience it. There are a few levels that really challenge your spatial reasoning and how you look at geometry. The music is soothing and the gameplay is simple and smooth as butter. Easily one of the best games I've ever played. Really hope they can put out some new levels one day, but the cost of this game plus the $1.99 in-game purchase for the extra pack is soooooooo worth it.
Addictive and Gorgeous From the get go the sounds are soothing, the colors calming and dimensions calling ;) The story is light but the puzzle dimensions continuously drive you on to see what they will come up with next. It looks gorgeous through the whole game without becoming boring or repetative. The puzzles change so much that you never feel like you're seeing the same thing over and over again. It is well worth the money to play it.
The best cellphone game I am not at all paid by the devs. I honestly think this is the single greatest cell phone. I'm not exaggerating at all. It's an amazing puzzle with beautiful art styling and gorgeous audio and not broken(remember that last one). There are a lot of clones, but this is the first and the best. It's completely worth the money and has no ads or micro transactions. (the in app purchase is for a dlc that's basically a sequel) The story was beautiful while vague. I've never cried for a SPOILER.
Worth every penny. I'm not sure why people have such a problem paying $1 for half of a game and another $2 for the rest of it if you like it. I would have rather paid $0 up front for 1/4 to try it out then another $5 for the rest. Luckily though, I took the plunge and risked the first dollar. Very fun thinking game. Not super hard, but interesting.
EASILY best app game I've ever played. I'm 25. came from a great generation of games. rpgs and story mean the world to me, and I've been extremely picky the last few years getting older. Never has a game caught me so quick as this, especially on a phone. I cannot recommend this game more. it's whimsical, beautiful, catching, stunning, brain tingling, and heart strumming all in one. Idk if it's just a fun nitch in my life this game has found, or if it really is just that F***ing amazing. GGWp. edit:changed to 3 star for being INCREDIBLY short
Money well spent What an absolutely beautiful game! I'm still blown away by the designs. I don't regret spending money on this game because it was not only beautiful but it was an all-rounder puzzle game (not super easy and not super hard where it's frustrating). I admit I had some wtf moments when the illusions were just trippy :P It would of been nice if the game was a little longer though. You could probably finish this in a day or less but other than that 11 crow people out of 10!
Most amazing experience from a game I have ever had. This game will blow your mind, bend the laws of physics, make your hairs stand on end and will make you shocked. By far the most amazing, beautiful and well made game I've ever played, not only on my phone but though out all of my gaming experiences. Looks amazing on my s7 edge. The game can be long or short, as it differs from how much you think outside the box. The graphics and visuals are amazing, the puzzles are those made by a genius and the story will touch you. Genuinely, amazing. Just get it. <3
AMAZING but... I completely feel in love with this application, as did my 7 year old, but we were terribly disappointed by only 19 levels. They're so quick to complete that it's all over too soon! We didn't feel it was too easy, just to short. Visuals: AMAZING. Sorry: INTRIGUING. Overall, our ONLY complaint is that it needs more levels. PLEASE add more levels!
Great game but way too short $4 for an hour or two of game play... It's not a bad deal compared to a movie ticket but it doesn't have much replay-ability so its literally a one shot game. That being said, graphics are great, game play is amazing, and the soundtrack pulls it together. I don't regret the money I spent, but I'm back in Google play looking for something else to play.
Beautiful A lovely isometric geometry game with lovely graphics. The rotating wheels are slightly unpredictable and it does eat into the battery, though this still doesn't spoil the game. More levels would be nice, though the ones which are already there are fantastic. SPOILER: I thought that by the end of the game I would find out what Ida wants to be forgiven for though this never revealed - perhaps this would ruin the mystery of the game. It is overpriced, though I got 80% off in an Easter deal!
#killer My girlfried was showing me this 🎮, saw the preview and knew I wanted it then and there no doubt. The game is absolutely worth the pay graphics are mind blowing short games hell makes you wish you could create more levels. Hope this game gets an upgrade with more levels im defiantly updating this and I will then buy the next stage. Please make more levels im dying to see whats and if something new comes ☝ my 👂 are all in
Most beautiful mobile game, but… This is the most beautiful mobile game I've ever seen. It's absolutely brilliant and captures the essence of Escher fantastically. I believe Escher himself would be amazed by this game. However, this us not really a puzzle game. When the only action you can take solves the puzzle, it's not really a puzzle. Even though I was awestruck at every level, the whole game only took me a few minutes to go through. Forgotten Shores doesn't require download, this us just disrespectful.
Mindblowing beauty I'd say this game was more of a spectacle than anything else. The graphics and mesmerizing colours are what sold me to continue into the extension although the puzzles are not too difficult. It's a fine balance between a relaxed game and a challenging one. Definitely worth the money just for the concept itself. Looking forward to more levels, please!
Not really worth it This game was verry cute and super fun to play...for a few hours. I couldn't believe how short this game was for the 4 dollars I paid. I just got this game this morning! My sister just got it too and both of us already finished it today. We just waisted 8 $! The app designers should make this worth it and make it long.
Great, but not puzzling enough Is puzzling a real word? I don't know. The game looks gorgeous and the music arrangement makes playing the game a relaxing experience. Looking at the different environments and geometry could amaze anyone. The use of the touch screen is also perfect for mobile devices. The puzzle mechanic is a great idea, but poorly executed however. Most of the times you simply have to walk to a button by spinning around a wheel, and wait for something that makes the next button available. Doesn't really make you think.
A Work of Art Monument Valley is no ordinary game. It has beautiful music, a great story, calm gameplay, and still holds a true challenge and is still labeled as a puzzle, but feels like a game. The artwork and design is created with love and a passion for sharing its beauty. Overall, my favorite game by-far in the app store and one that I cannot stop playing.
Can't purchase forgotten shores This game is amazing in both depth and design and, although a bit short, totally worth the price. That said, I'm having issues purchasing forgotten shores. Whatever the type of payment I chose this type of payment is refused. Since I can purchase other products from the play store, I think this issue is specific to this expansion. I'll gladly rate this app 5 stars if this issue is resolved.
The only bad thing about this game is just the fact that it's a really short game. The music is beautiful, our main character "Ida" is so cute, the graphics are so breathtaking. The puzzles are pretty hard BUT in a good way. It's a shame that there are only some levels to play. I wish there were more levels; this game is really just that good. I want more levels!! :(
Beautiful Like most of the reviews this game is beautifully designed and I truly enjoyed the puzzles. I understand the need of payment usually before complete games in indie development but I think the extra levels should not have been as pricey. They are very short and simple and detract from the beauty as you don't have long to explore as the level is over before you feel part if it. 4/5 for price but definitely recommend this game.
Monument Valley is lovely, chill, and everything about it from the minimalist art design to the way it plays with perspective is seriously charming. It's also seriously insubstantial - there's about an hour's worth of not-particularly-challenging game here for your $3.99, and like most puzzle games there's no reason to replay once it's done.
I seriously never play puzzle games But this is just something else. It's jaw-dropping in so many aspects. The visual style and atmosphere, the Escheresque geometrically impossible puzzles and the "ah wow!" factor of solving them. Everything about this game screams genius and unique.
This game is absolutely splendid. The art, the little story, the gameplay... All wonderful!! I finished the original game in less than 2 hours, I just could not put it in. I got sucked into this world.. I love when I find a new atmosphere and feeling from art that I've never experienced before. I would honestly pay for more expansions. Thank you so much for this game.
Good, but not Worth it A very good concept executed in a fantastic fashion. Sadly it is currently way too expensive for what it's offering. $4 is good for 10 levels (1-2 hours of gameplay) which aren't challenging in the slightest, and then I am expected to pay even more for extra gameplay. It's a shame, this game would be an easy 5 star rating if it wasn't ridiculously short and waay overpriced.
Literally captured my heart I have never written a game review before but this one deserves it. It's absolutely beautiful. The look and feel of the game and the music and sounds and everything just comes together in perfect harmony. Don't want to stop playing but have work tomorrow so thought the least I could do was write a good review before sleeping
Love It I played this game over and over and over, like dozens of times. I don't even know what I'm trying to achieve any more, beside enjoying the beautiful worlds all over again. It is too bad that development is stopped way too early, and that new content is not to be expected ever again... But even with this limited gameplay lengthwise, this game is about to remain one of the most influencing mobile game ever.
Excellent addiction Mind bending and completely addictive game. Totally want to continue playing on Forgotten Shores but I cannot purchase as all my method of payment are invalid for some reason. Slight disappointment that it's not more difficult and took me too short a time to complete. Still enjoyed it. See you soon, Ida.
