### 4/5 — Love Puzzles Like This

*2026-03-14, version 1.4.6.6*

I love puzzle brain twisting games like this one. I was sad when it ended and there was only 14 levels, I wish it had more. That is my only complaint.

### 3/5 — Enjoyed

*2025-10-26, version 1.4.6.6*

I love MV and happy to have similar experience. Thank you

### 2/5 — Evo sucks

*2025-09-05, version 1.4.6.6*

Much to easy

### 4/5 — Harder than MV

*2025-07-29, version 1.4.6.6*

I found the puzzles in this game more challenging and absorbing than Monument Valley. I would have nothing but praise (and 5 stars) for this game except for the clunky storytelling (maybe it lost something in translation) and less beautiful and immersive graphics. But if you finished the MV games and want more of the same kind of thing, only more challenging actual gameplay, get this.

### 3/5 — Don’t want the hints

*2024-08-03, version 1.4.6.6*

I’ve just started playing this game. I like it so far but can’t see a way to turn off the hints. I hope this will stop at some point as it spoils the fun of figuring it out.

### 4/5 — Pros and a con

*2023-11-21, version 1.4.6.6*

I enjoy this little game, but at about Level 10 on my (up to date) iOS, I hit a roadblock where no matter how or where I tap along the path, the figure will not move. I kind of accidentally got past that freeze on one level, only to run up against it on another level. This isn’t a big complaint, because for the price I got a good amount of ad-free play.

### 2/5 — Boring

*2023-10-03, version 1.4.6.6*

Restarts from beginning every time. Waste of money

### 5/5 — SUPPORT UKRAINIAN DEVELOPERS! :)

*2023-05-22, version 1.4.6.6*

This game was developed by Ukrainian developers. Buying this game is one small way to show support. 

 As so many others have said - this shares a lot with Monument Valley - especially the look. This game is well worth the low price - the small size and being ad free are bonuses. Game play is similar to MV but shorter and less challenging. It’s like a zen version of MV. I doubt I’ll play this again, whereas I can imagine another run-through of MV. 

I enjoyed it and would recommend it, with those caveats, to anyone who liked MV. I’ll also seek out other games by this Ukrainian developer.

### 4/5 — Evo

*2023-03-01*

Petit jeu sympathique même style que monument valley

### 2/5 — This is no Monument Valley

*2022-12-21, version 1.4.6.6*

I wanted more MV. I didn’t get it here. Charmless story, easy puzzles. I wonder if Ustwo is flattered or annoyed.

### 4/5 — Best MV clone to date

*2022-12-06*

Of all the copies of Monument Valley to have been released over the past few years, this is the only one I've liked. Has some tricky levels.

### 2/5 — Evo explores review

*2022-11-27, version 1.4.6.6*

I really enjoyed Monument Valley so I tried to find something similar while this game looks similar and it’s a puzzle it’s not fun at all the story is quite boring and there are certain moves that don’t make any sense. I really wish I didn’t pay for this game. From reviews and description this game looked like it had potential… but I’m hugely disappointed

### 5/5 — Wow

*2022-10-20, version 1.4.6.6*

Wow just wow

### 5/5 — Loved evo explores

*2022-08-25, version 1.4.6.6*

I liked Monument Valley and this plays a lot like that. No timer, no score, but patterns that bend geometry and take time to figure out. I will play more games by this developer.

### 5/5 — Super

*2022-08-06*

Gelungenes Spiel auf Ideenbasis der beliebten Reihe Monument Valley. Ich hoffe auf weitere Abenteuer von Evo!

### 4/5 — Wieder ein schönes Rätsel

*2022-07-17*

Im Grunde ist es das gleiche Procedere wie bei MonumentValley. Ich mag diese dreidimensionalen Verrenkungen im Kopf.

### 5/5 — You’ll love this if you loved Monument Valley

*2022-06-19, version 1.4.6.6*

As I said

### 5/5 — 💕

*2022-04-29, version 1.4.6.6*

I love this!!!!

### 1/5 — Interesting

*2023-01-30, version 1.4.6.6*

I LOVED Monument Valley 1&2 and have been searching for games like it, when I came across this. This game has the same visual effects, graphics and concepts of the Monument Valley series, so it’s great for those who want to continue their Monument Valley journey (albeit there is a whole new character and simplified story) therefore I praise it for that. 

I do however have to say it’s a complete plagiarism of Monument Valley, no thought in respect of originally, colours, layout, graphics, puzzles has gone into this. That’s why I give it 4 stars. If it wants to be it’s own standalone game, which it is, then make it make sense, don’t copy another.

### 1/5 — A poor imitation

*2022-06-18, version 1.4.6.6*

A poor rip off of Monument Valley. Dull to play, short, and nowhere near as clever as Monument Valley. Don’t waste your money.

### 1/5 — Shame on you

*2022-03-21, version 1.4.6.6*

This is a direct copy of monument valley ,and as such , the least you could do is add your own unique twist (something more inventive than flipping a cassette )and your own creative story line……but you didn’t bother to do even that.  I’m sure you will be successful since many gamers obviously don’t care if ideas are derivative as evidenced by your ratings.  But we both know you could do better. Disappointed.

### 1/5 — Not playing until hints are optional

*2022-02-23, version 1.4.6.6*

I knew there were hints from reading other reviews, but I was misled by a review that said the hints only appear if you touch the screen for a few seconds - and I thought “ok, I just won’t do that.” But the hints are there like it or not (for the first few levels apparently).  I realize the misleading review is not the developer’s fault, but the bad design is.

I don't want to be shown where to put my fingers, at all.  Ruins the exploratory experience completely. I need to be able to turn hints off from the start. I realize it’s just the first few levels, but those are ruined levels. 

Not playing it until/unless an update fixes this.  Will give 5 stars if that happens.  If that doesn’t ever happen, I wasted my money I guess. :(

### 1/5 — Erro

*2020-06-27*

Não consigo baixar o app, meu iPhone está no iOS 13 e mesmo assim não consigo baixar o App, só gastei dinheiro. Tenho Espaco suficiente no meu aparelho mas não baixa, já conectei em outras internet e não consigo, baixar. Meu iPhone 11 128gb. Tem 20GB livre. Lancem uma atualização, quero jogar 😬

**Developer response:** Could you please check that you have enough storage?

### 1/5 — Foi cobrado e não o jogo não instala

*2020-06-17*

Foi cobrado mas não consigo instalar. Porque?

**Developer response:** Is there a chance you don't have a free space on your device?
Could you please try to restart it?

### 1/5 — only 14 levels?

*2020-01-25, version 1.4.6.6*

it took me about an hour to get to and complete level 14.Then the little robot got into his spaceship and flew off.At first I thought he was going to the next level/planet, but he just kept flying.I waited for like 5 minutes, and he just kept flying! How do I get past level 14? PLEASE help me!

### 1/5 — Too simple

*2019-01-13, version 1.4.6.6*

Too simple. Does not match the Monument Valley in anything even though superficially appears very similar.

### 1/5 — GameCenter zwangsweise!

*2018-08-17*

Das Spiel aktiviert immer wieder das elende GameCenter, auch wenn man es eigentlich deaktiviert hat, und nicht nutzen möchte. Es gibt leider keine Möglichkeit dieses Verhalten abzustellen.

### 1/5 — Wanna be

*2018-02-16, version 1.4.5*

A clear attempt to mimic Monument Valley, but with far less quality and subtlety.  Make your own game, but make it original instead of stealing someone else’s idea.  It may well be legal, but you’re just trying to make money by copying a hugely successful game.

### 5/5 — keeping my ageing brain cells active...

*2026-01-21, version 1.4.6.6*

The ‘Monument Valley’ series and other puzzle/game clones like it are keeping my ageing brain cells active [I am in my mid-60’s at the time of this review] and iPad Air alive.

### 5/5 — Loved it

*2025-12-17, version 1.4.6.6*

How lovely to return to the monument Valley style of 
world.

### 5/5 — Brilliant!

*2025-11-02, version 1.4.6.6*

I really enjoyed this game. Hard enough that I got frustrated when I was stuck but still solvable when I persisted. Definitely worth 5*****

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2025-10-18*

Simply Amazing

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2025-09-23, version 1.4.6.6*

Not enough games like this on the App Store.  Monument Valley being another notable one to compare it to

### 5/5 — Fun & relaxing game

*2025-01-22, version 1.4.6.6*

Really enjoyed this game. Very similar to Monument Valley.

### 5/5 — Best MV clone to date

*2024-10-23, version 1.4.6.6*

Time for a sequel!

### 5/5 — Evo Explorer

*2024-07-28*

Ein wunderschönes Spiel. Ich liebe solche kniffligen Rätselspiele. Bitte gerne mehr davon.

### 5/5 — Monument Valleyが好きだから購入

*2023-10-09*

レビューが発売当時(某Webでは2016年と記載)あたりしかなくて、もったいないので書きました。 アプデでだいぶ変化したようで、Monument Valleyのように物語がついてます。トーテム・ポール君ではなくカセットテープ君がお手伝いしてくれます。Monument Valleyより簡単でサクサク進めます。     けど、全体の色合いが可愛いのでゆっくり眺めながらプレイ。←個人的にココ大事     星2の方が言ってる事が『おっしゃる通りです。』ですが、コレはコレで良いと思ってレビュー。           あー暗闇で異形物をライフルで打ち負かすとかいう異次元じゃなくて、こういう異次元をプレイしたかったんだよーあー楽しい。ヤギも楽しいけどな。

### 5/5 — Il faut réfléchir

*2023-09-03*

Jeu vraiment génial, il faut simplement un peu de jugeote et surtout de patience…
