Wow - a masterpiece
This game (adventure and story) is remarkable. Touching story with incredible graphics. I can’t say enough about it. Truly amazing and highly recommended as one of the best.

Beautiful and captivating
This game is a true joy to play. If you love monument valley, you’ll love this game! The storyline is captivating and the art is stunning.

A phenomenal game, worth the price
The concept was enough to convince me to pre-order, but the way that the puzzle elements are woven into the world is wholly unique. It’s a relaxing, yet immersive experience on a mobile device. It’s worth your money. The game doesn’t treat you like you don’t know what you’re doing. Instead, it respects you, and crafts a stylized narrative that keeps you involved.

What an awesome game!!!!
This is one of those unique games that comes only once every so often. If you are a fan of these story-puzzle-adventure games, then you must play this. This is such a beautifully crafted game it’s a true work of art. Bravo developers!!!! You’ve really outdone yourselves. I would gladly pay double for a sequel. Thank you for this gem!!!! The level of difficulty is just right so didn’t even need walkthroughs. Great great game can’t praise it enough. Just one bad thing I finished and now have to suffer waiting for the next good game.

Fantastic game, highly recommended
I usually don’t care much for games with a story, but this was so beautifully done. The art style is fantastic and the story arc was cute enough to follow along but also easy enough to ignore if you don’t care for it.
The puzzles themselves were fun, albeit not very challenging, but new mechanics were added often enough to keep it interesting. They are also not too complex, so you could easily break up the game into a bunch of small sessions.
Some issues I ran into:
- Settings menu is in the upper right. It’s white and practically invisible and took me way too long to realize it was there, even after the game informed me there were settings
- Controls could be wonky. There were a handful of times where the object was snapping to the wrong location when I wanted to be one square over. I thought perhaps the game didn’t allow it for one reason or another, but then eventually I’d come back to it and get it in the location I originally wanted
- Pathfinding occasionally behaved strangely. I’d tap on an object a few squares to the right of my character, and instead of moving directly to right, he’d try to take a longer path that went up and around and was blocked
- Chapter selection doesn’t seem to be working correctly. I tried to go back to find all the art and when trying to replay a chapter, it advances to the next/most recent chapter instead. It worked when I replayed chapter 1 but not anymore.
The issues I encountered were minor and this is still a five star game. Would definitely recommend it!

Fantastic Game!
Very fun game, each level adds a new element to the game. Definitely a puzzle that makes you think, but not too difficult for the most part. Finished it in 2 days and will definitely play again 👍🏻

Just....beautiful.
I just finished playing and without spoiling it for anyone else, the ending made me cry a little. The artwork is simple but breathtaking, and very original. The story immediately grabs you, pulls at your heartstrings, and doesn’t let go even once the game is completed. The puzzles were just challenging enough to make you think but not drive you to madness.
Well done team. Well done.
Also, I want to address any negative reviews. Giving this amazing game and the developers ONE STAR just because you got a little frustrated isn’t cool at all!!! This game was not difficult to figure out, the tutorial is thorough, and it’s easy to find the main menu. I actually really appreciate the inconspicuous menu (tiny dot in the upper right hand corner), anything more than that would take away from the artwork. At the risk of being a *little* mean, you have to have an IQ above 3 to figure it out lol. If you seriously get angry and purposely hurt the rating because *you* couldn’t figure it out, it’s not the game for you. The game isn’t the problem lol.

I'm in Tears...A very touching game
I finished the whole game within two days and I love the story. I love that i can reload from the check point if I made a mistake. Some level are a bit confusing but I passed after several try. Hope there was in-game hints.
(Spoiler alert)Sometimes I think the Artist is too cruel, forcing the hero to do cruel things to the animals. But in the end the hero made the right choice and saved them. This game shows a valuable life lesson that we all can use sometime in our life. Someday we might become like the Artist, but after all we gotta be like the hero and do the right thing, moving on from the tragic that happened in the past, embracing the future with love. Great game.

A Beautiful Masterpiece
I had pre-ordered this game back in January based solely on its preview imagery, and, despite its release being briefly delayed, so far, it has been entirely worth the wait. I have completed only a small portion of the game, but already I am utterly in awe of its simple yet stunning artwork, its delicate yet immersive storytelling, and its delightfully calming soundtrack. Although I have only played for less than one day and have completed only a chapter or two, I do not feel my praise is premature nor undeserved. I am not one to rate apps, let alone write a full review, yet I felt I must encourage others wholeheartedly to purchase this engaging and challenging - without being inaccessible or overly complicated - narrative puzzle game. My advice - take your time with this game, and thoroughly enjoy the detail that the artists have penned into this blue-ink world. Let yourself fall into this game that requires thoughtful execution but encourages quiet, meditative relaxation. I would suggest this game for any age, young or not-so-young (such as myself), as it produces instantly enjoyable and exceedingly mesmerizing gameplay. I am justifiably eager and excited to play through the rest of this game to explore and discover all that this charming world has to offer, and I could not recommend this game highly enough to anyone and everyone. Creators, thank you.

Frustrating controls and directions
I’m 2 minutes into the game, and my box has disappeared. I couldn’t figure out how to move it correctly, and then it vanished, and a note saying “distance from finger to object can be changed in settings”, but there’s no obvious way to do that, so I guess I can either restart the game or quit.
Pretty disappointing.
2021-02-24
Beautiful!
First, what a beautiful game. The artwork and detail of the ink drawings are incredible, the game itself if a fun puzzler that, so far, has been challenging but not to challenging to figure out. Well worth checking this one out.
