Monument Valley is a work of art. Its intricate, delicately crafted levels are masterpieces that exceed their M.C. Escher inspirations. Where Escher designed 2D representations of impossible-yet-operational architecture, Monument Valley opens that idea up to a 3D world that must withstand scrutiny from every angle as well as direct manipulation by the viewer. Paths that appear elevated and inaccessible from one direction become stepping stones when rotated. Supporting archways are actually stairs once flipped. Every part of the towering structures fit together like crisp, fresh out of the box jigsaw pieces, and yet they can be turned and twisted to create dozens of new pictures that are just as unified and smooth.
