Monument Valle!

The whole game's backstory is just like the game's graphics, simple and meaningful, Monument Valle's storyline is not very complex, not even complete, more or let the player's free play imagination, but this does not affect Monument Valle's great glory. Because of their own momentary greed, eventually causing the destruction of the entire country, in addition to their own people are all dead, this is both the protagonist of Monument Valle Princess Ada, because the take away for the entire country to provide a source of energy sacred geometry, Princess Ada will have to brave up to face the mistakes of their own birth, and try to restore all this, to the original happy look!

In the game, the dead nationals all turned into black crows, wandering in all corners of the crumbling country, they lost all consciousness, only walking along a fixed route in the map, with a pair of wings but can not fly. Crows will block Ada's route, but will not attack Ada, they are like moving roadblocks, Ada must go around them to pass. There is also a ghost in the game, it will guide Ada to the next level, is the only role and Ada talk to Ada, Ada will confess to it, it is often saying some mysterious words, like the narrator of the whole story, but also like the controller.

Monument Valle's graphics overall color style is very fresh, except in the tombstone of that one level, the rest of the tone is fresh and bright. The story of the game itself revolves around redemption and repentance, the emotional tone is rather gloomy, but in a slightly brighter color backdrop, giving people a kind of apocalyptic desolation, there is still that last glimmer of light want to grab the feeling. Ada alone in the map appears to be more lonely, there is a kind of happy scenery set off the feeling of sadness. The theme of each map is a peculiar building, most of them are incomplete, some broken wall pillars and stairs can be seen everywhere, this crippled building is to create a feeling of dilapidation for the player after the loss, so as to show the game of those desolation phenomenon.

Although Monument Valle is a maze game, but the map screen is the ultimate minimalist, is in such a seemingly very simple map, but pass is not easy. Each level requires the player to switch many perspectives and then use the optical illusion to discover new paths. The process of solving the puzzle is exciting, each time you switch perspectives is like discovering a new treasure, open all your brains to explore the hidden path, plus some unique small organs to create a new way, so the whole brain in the whole process of high-speed operation, the moment of success is like climbing a difficult mountain.

The journey in the distance seemed like it would never end, but for the sake of that sense of sin, that responsibility, there was only to lift up the head and continue to walk ahead. Ada was walking step by step in these mysterious buildings towards the point of redemption, reflecting on her sins again and again in front of the sacred geometry, and in the process of redeeming the people, she was also redeeming herself.
