### 4/5 — Breaks, but loves it ❤️

*2025-05-27, version 1.2.18250*

My daughter loves monument valley 3, but she thinks it has really long breaks in between.

### 3/5 — Where is the expansion?

*2025-05-23, version 1.2.18250*

The expansion released in April still isn’t available to play on this app.

### 2/5 — Game is broken

*2025-05-21, version 1.2.18250*

Can’t talk to the nomad at the tree. Nothing happens. I thought this was supposed to be fixed?

### 3/5 — Good but not great.

*2025-05-19, version 1.2.18250*

I was so excited for this game and while I did enjoy it, it felt like it was missing something magical from the first two games. It still looks and sounds beautiful and the puzzles were still pretty interesting & fun but it just didn’t hook me like the previous titles.

### 5/5 — Still Fun

*2025-05-15, version 1.2.18250*

Last time I played was MV1 and MV2, and that’s a few years ago. I enjoyed the clever 3D puzzling and storytelling so I am giving 3 a go.  Still fun to play. I look forward to finishing !

### 5/5 — I’m obsessed

*2025-05-15, version 1.2.18250*

Surrealism meets Polly Pocket. The graphics and mechanics scratch and itch in my brain. Best puzzle game I’ve ever played.

### 3/5 — Is that it?

*2025-05-10, version 1.2.18250*

The April update was so disappointing. No challenge in moving a boat around to collect flowers that aren’t hidden, and only a single level to play.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2025-05-10, version 1.2.18250*

Really like 1 and 2 of this game and now playing number 3. I would like more games likes this one.  Gets your brain working a bit more then other games.

### 5/5 — Yeah

*2025-05-09, version 1.2.18250*

This is like it’s actually five star because you can actually find a way to find a way and then you can then you can go to the next level yeah like it’s so easy

### 3/5 — Beautiful, but far too easy

*2025-05-09, version 1.2.18250*

Monument Valley 3 certainly lives up to the series' reputation for breathtaking beauty. The visual design is truly stunning, a feast for the eyes at every turn. However, that beauty comes at the cost of challenge. For those familiar with the intricate puzzles of the first two games, this installment feels significantly easier, almost a leisurely stroll. Clocking in at around an hour for a complete playthrough, it sadly lacks the satisfying complexity that defined its predecessors. While visually gorgeous, Monument Valley 3 might leave long-time fans wanting more in terms of engaging gameplay.

### 3/5 — Lacking substance

*2025-05-09, version 1.2.18250*

The first MV was a real in depth adventure, with lots of creative and complex puzzles. MV2 wasn’t. MV3 was something of an improvement but still lacked substance. The spring 2025 update added more content and it still looks and sounds lovely, and the impossible architecture model remains. But it basically took me a single commute to complete it. There’s so much opportunity for this model, so I’d like a lot more puzzles and a lot less zen talking

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2025-05-09, version 1.2.18250*

Please Please More MV!!

### 5/5 — 3rd Gen 😩

*2025-05-08, version 1.2.18250*

I’ve played these games before! Every single monument valley is uniquely beautiful and such beautiful sound design. I love these games!!

### 2/5 — Just quite dull

*2025-05-08, version 1.2.18250*

Like most Netflix games, not very interesting, get bored very quick

### 5/5 — Beautiful game

*2025-05-08, version 1.2.18250*

This game is absolutely beautiful,the art style and story are just perfect and from what I’ve played so far there are no bugs or glitches

### 5/5 — woah

*2025-05-08, version 1.2.18250*

Way more advanced than a free mobile game should be like astonishing.

### 3/5 — Issue After Latest Update

*2025-05-05, version 1.2.17909*

First, I’d like to express my appreciation — I’m really happy that the game is back, and I thank you for bringing it back!

However, after installing the latest update, I encountered an issue where the story no longer appears, and all the text in the app is showing as squares.

Could you please advise if this is a known issue? Is there an upcoming fix, or is it something specific to my device?

I would appreciate your assistance in resolving this issue

### 3/5 — 什么时候才能上架非奈飞的版本呀

*2025-05-03, version 1.2.17909*

我只是想玩这款游戏，并不想买奈飞会员

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Netflix required

*2025-06-01, version 1.2.18250*

I played and loved the first two games and would have happily payed for this. Such a shame the devs completely sold out. They even let the game’s title be butchered…

### 1/5 — Sigh

*2025-05-29, version 1.2.18250*

I played and replayed the first two games, and looked forward to this episode, only to find I need to have a  Netflix account, which I don’t have, need or want - such a shame

### 1/5 — Love the series, this was a letdown

*2025-05-01, version 1.2.17909*

Played Chapter 11, which had some challenges. But the beginning of the level, all that guiding the boat around, what a pain. Just make decent levels. The coding of this level, and chapter 11 specifically, is not on the same level as the first 2 games. There are weird glitches where items seem to move thru other items.

So disappointing this company sold out to Netflix. 

But wish the Apple Pencil worked in the game. I see another reviewer mentioned the same thing. Lack of Apple Pencil support is a huge disappointment. Navigation, especially of the boat, was difficult because your hand blocks the screen.

iPad Pro, iOS 18.2

I've completed all levels, and while enchanting, it's not very challenging. Took my review down to one star. This was very easy, took perhaps an hour, maybe a little longer to complete it.

### 1/5 — There was a time when games were inclusive…

*2025-04-29, version 1.2.17528*

I love all the previously Monument Valley games - so clever, so beautifully crafted. It was always an occasion to play a new one, whether a full game or a few levels for a charity.
Unfortunately, I’ll never get to play this one as I don’t - & won’t - subscribe to Netflix. 

Such a pity.

### 1/5 — Faulty app

*2025-04-29, version 1.2.17528*

I’ve submitted a ticket…no response. The part after the nomad doesn’t load!! I’m not the only person to report this.

### 1/5 — Mistake Producing through Netflix

*2025-04-25, version 1.2.17528*

I refuse to resume my Netflix account due to their outrageous price increases that do not coincide with any improvements in content or service. I will certainly not be paying $17.99 just to play a game I was previously able to purchase (versions 1 and 2) for just a couple dollars. It was a complete mistake for this game to partner with a greedy corporate monster like Netflix. You want to know why Netflix has so many "new subscriptions"? It's all the people canceling their plans and then restarting them for one month only to cancel and restart again later to save money.

### 1/5 — Greedy Gatekeeping

*2025-04-23, version 1.2.17528*

Limiting your game to only Netflix subscribers is the ultimate sellout after so many years of love and loyalty.

### 1/5 — New update breaks game

*2025-04-23, version 1.2.17528*

Love the game, but the new update is unplayable.  New journey starts, screen pans up, then nothing happens no matter where you click or how long you wait

### 1/5 — 差👎

*2025-04-18, version 1.2.17236*

Why do you have to be a member to play? I'm speechless.

### 1/5 — No to Netflix

*2025-04-14, version 1.0.15001*

I loved your first two installments of MV and I play them over and over. Was excited to see MV3 until I realized I had to sign up for Netflix. What a sell out. And then I read the lower rated reviews and saw that it was short and too easy and decided not to subscribe. Hopefully someday it will be offered just as the first two were.

### 5/5 — Delightful… as always.

*2025-07-08*

When I first played MV I & II long ago I described my experience with a word I had never used when describing a mobile game: “Enchanting”.
Years later I still experience something special when I play MV III.

Some people will nitpick and complain that it doesn’t live up to the first two games, but the very nature of experience makes it almost impossible to live up to the magic that you felt on your first encounter with something so unique. It simply can’t have the impact of your first time because it won’t have the elements of surprise and newness. That is the Law of Diminishing Returns, and it can’t be avoided. 
But that doesn’t mean the new experience can’t hold beauty and delights of its own. 

Instead of focusing on what you think is lacking, try focusing on the new gameplay features, the new art and audio that add to the experience. They clearly put the same effort into making this game that went into the others. 
The game is accessible and familiar but it’s also feels grander and more epic in certain ways.
I haven’t completed the game yet because I want to savor what I’m guessing will be the last chapter of a Monument Valley Trilogy. 

In any case, it’s a true pleasure to experience the wonder and delight of Monument Valley once again.

### 5/5 — I love this game and need more new content!

*2025-06-01, version 1.2.18250*

This game is truly a masterpiece in what might as well be a great trilogy that I have fully completed, now I need the rest of the extra content for this game and then I can finally finish the entire trilogy at its full. I love the work you and Ustwo made and I hope to see more!

### 5/5 — Holy carp and koi THIS GAME IS AWESOME

*2025-05-31, version 1.2.18250*

HOLY WOW this is my favorite of the MV games BY FAR. The storyline- beautiful. The interactive element that’s different from all the others- amazing. BOATEM- YES PEOPLE. Nomad- We love her. And I will go to the people that hate her and fling apricots at them. :] I really love the way Noor can move around in the Lighthouse (chapter area) and the little mini quests are so fun! Recommend for busy/stressed out people that need a chill pill- here’s the chill pill you ordered. A message to Nomad: Girl. The whole fandom loves you. You are amazing just the way you are. And what you actually look like is one of the single most beautiful things I have ever seen, right up there with certain sunrises. 👌
Your pal, Fenra 
P.S. To Nomad again: I will go to the villages that cast you out and throw peaches at their houses and write “Fenra wuz here” because they couldn’t see your beauty. :]
P.P.S When is the soundtrack gonna be available to listen to on Apple Music? I WANNA LISTEN- XD

**Developer response:** We're glad you enjoyed the journey so much. Thanks for playing!

### 5/5 — Its back! And Free

*2025-05-28, version 1.2.18250*

I loved Monument Valley 1 and 2, I am amazed that Netflix have brought it back with a completely new story and levels for free.  This is a great puzzle game.

### 5/5 — Love this

*2025-05-26, version 1.2.18250*

Beautifully done!

### 5/5 — This game made me happy :D

*2025-05-25, version 1.2.18250*

It made me feel so small like I was in the levels

### 5/5 — BEST GAME EVER

*2025-05-23, version 1.2.18250*

I love it. So much fun. Hahahahahahahaha!

### 5/5 — Pure beauty

*2025-05-18, version 1.2.18250*

The care that went into this is obvious. It’s pure delight. You’re not so much « playing » as watching yourself play.

### 5/5 — Thanks for making it

*2025-05-16, version 1.2.18250*

There are games… and then there’s this ✨
