I highly recommend giving this game a try if you enjoy puzzles that make you feel accomplished after completing. It has a story behind the architecture sets and is sort of like an architectural magazine filled with beautiful pieces and puzzles while it tells the story of Liz. The game is made by a single dev who worked on this game for a few years and you can tell the heart and design choices in the game reflect the devs ideas. Other than that here’s a quick rating. Story: It’s light and easy to understand. Fully voiced. Atmosphere: The art-style carries each page you enter and the puzzles get more challenging as you progress. Gameplay: From others have said is the “tutorial is too difficult” but I think it’s actually quite easy to understand. If you enjoy puzzles then you can figure it out. I’d say the dev already has fixed that issue and I passed the tutorial within 10-15 minutes. Overall I find this to be a little treasure of a game and I’ll remember it fondly. I suggest giving it a try!

Fabulous, unique, and challenging puzzle game. Have only encountered one issue so far where the resolution resets itself to a lower level, however a restart of the app corrects it. Great game, don’t miss this one.

As someone who typically struggles with puzzle games, I naturally struggled a bit with this one. The difference with The Valley of the Architects and other strategy oriented mobile games, is that in this case my struggle only made the process more enjoyable. Instead of tossing my phone away in frustration, I found myself leaning in even closer to the screen, gripping my case tightly. That feeling when everything starts to come together, and you see your hard work payoff, is well worth a bit of wait. In addition to an exhilarating and unusual puzzle system, The Valley of the Architects also pulled me along with its captivating mystery, which progresses with each level the player completes.
