I finished it in under 2 hours though unfortunately. ### 5/5 — I really love this game *2026-08-10, version 3.9.744* I started play monument valley 8 years ago. I stopped after a few months and didn’t start playing again until now. I remember how much fun I had playing the game and I used this game to kill time when I was bored. I make fan art of this game as well. Anyways this game is just really beautiful and I find it relaxing. ### 5/5 — Beautiful and creative game *2026-08-08, version 3.9.744* I love this series of games so much.

But.. *2026-06-25, version 3.9.744* This game is AMAZING. I only got it today and the graphics are great, the story is great, it’s all just pure beauty. There is, sadly, one tiny thing wrong with it. I also completed it today, in less than an hour. I really wish more levels would be added, or even just making the current ones longer. Also, even though the story is sort of understandable from some of the dialogue, I wish there was a sort of intro where it shows you what happened. The ending is PERFECT, though. Just perfect. ### 5/5 — Good *2026-06-21, version 3.9.744* It is a really clever game about completing quests and helping Ida find her way. A bit tricky to understand though!👍🏻💕🦛 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — The Modern Art of Video Games *2026-08-08, version 3.9.744* Monument Valley is the modern art of video games. It’s not an animation, it’s not a story, it’s not a game, it’s just shallowly pretending to be all of those. It doesn’t challenge or push any of those disciplines, it just does a good job of looking as if it’s doing those jobs. Like a typical American white collar officer worker. Usually a movie gets you emotionally invested enough for you to focus solely on it. A game challenges you enough for you to focus to try and solve the puzzle. Monument Valley isn’t challenging enough in anyway to push you to actually pay attention to it. You can literally just button mash the touch screen till you get to the end in one lazy sitting. ### 1/5 — Get a life *2026-07-06, version 3.9.744* Trash ### 1/5 — I’m pivoting away from games like this *2026-04-29, version 3.9.744* I don’t support devs that don’t support devs. This isn’t a joke or a fake review. I love this game but I won’t be trying out any more of your work based on your business model. Thanks. ### 1/5 — Considering UsTwo’s view of workers…. *2026-04-29, version 3.9.744* I’ll be deleting this game, which I had loved, because of the opinions of the creator. They made their fortune using other people, but they have let greed overcome their lives. What a shame. ### 1/5 — A little bit too romantic *2026-04-29, version 3.9.744* "We've been a little bit too romantic about the idea that we should have employees and give people long-term job security." - Maria Sayans, Ustwo Games CEO ### 1/5 — Stuck *2026-04-19, version 3.9.744* The game is frozen at the entry of Chapter 7, The Rookery. I love this app. Please fix it. ### 1/5 — Попрашайка *2026-04-11* Первый раз запускаешь приложение и оно уже просит оценку ### 1/5 — $5 for 10 levels is ridiculous. *2026-03-28, version 3.9.744* I should have read the reviews. $5 for 10 tiny levels is a joke and not competitive in today’s app/game world. Find a more substantial game. ### 1/5 — It would not rotate *2025-09-14, version 3.9.744* The level wouldn’t rotate so impossible to continue on. The bugs add frustration to what should be relaxing experience. ### 1/5 — لا انصح بها *2025-05-30, version 3.9.744* مراحل محدودة، ما ان تعتاد عليها حتى تنتهي المراحل ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best game of all *2026-09-07, version 3.9.744* I love all three of the monument valleys ### 5/5 — AHSHSHSHSH *2026-09-07, version 3.9.744* THIS GAME IS AMAZING MY FRIEND RECOMMENDED IT ITS SO COOL AND AWESOMESAUSE CHECK IT OUT GUYS ITS SO PEAK TRUST 🙏🔥🔥🔥 ### 5/5 — Fun games *2026-09-01, version 3.9.744* Dear creative this game is really fun. I think you should keep it up. It’s really really fun. Make some more games. ### 5/5 — Some of these one star reviews….. *2026-08-24, version 3.9.744* I just have to say this game is a puzzle game and everyone’s saying it’s not. It’s just kind of dumb like maybe you think it’s not a puzzle game because maybe they think it’s easy but it’s still a puzzle game and then also. This looks like kind of game. They have an awesome story that goes very deep into some sort of philosophy. I was a bit disappointed that it doesn’t. It’s just kind of. Ida, take shape, but shape is good for people and. Ida not supposed to have shape so she learned that somehow and start to return shape and then good yay. Honestly, the gameplay is really good. The price is annoying but perfectly fair. I think all the people saying it’s overpriced or just used to every mobile game being free. But with predatory in app purchases. Put 11 beautiful thought out levels for the original price and eight more for an extra one dollar or two is a really good price. Considering these levels are beautiful and you have to think of the amount of work it takes for the code to take into account every single possible illusion, because you can’t just 3-D model it then put some script in that she walks if there’s a path because then if the path is just an illusion, she wouldn’t actually walk there. It takes a lot of work to make sure every illusion physically possible works it’s also beautiful at the same time so it’s a great game really good. Some of the one star reviews are just kind of. I think they’re all used to every single mobile game being free so the second one of them is paid they get angry ### 5/5 — A fun game to play *2026-08-23, version 3.9.744* I like how that you don’t need Wi-Fi for this game. ### 5/5 — Trippy *2026-08-23, version 3.9.744* Makes me feel like I’m on acid 10/10 ### 5/5 — Great game *2026-08-17, version 3.9.744* Have had fun getting through first 10 levels, great value ### 5/5 — This is my 2nd time to play *2026-08-16, version 3.9.744* Can’t wait to finish this and play the next episode ### 5/5 — Such a Beautiful Game!!! *2026-08-13, version 3.9.744* Everything about this game, from the music to the movement and graphics to the scenery is just sooooo beautiful. It’s truly a masterpiece! ### 5/5 — Phenomenal Game!! *2026-08-13, version 3.9.744* I googled best mind games and this one popped up saying “Great puzzle game for gamers” they are 1000% correct!
