Another new product that was introduced yesterday at the Apple WWDC, is the sequel to the great game Monument Valley. The second installment of this very successful game is currently only available on the platform iOS and costs 149 crowns. The first part of Monument Valley was released in 2014 and is created by studio ustwo Games. Immediately after its release, it received a huge wave of positive reviews and earned many awards. It is often ranked among the best mobile games of all time. The main goal of the first part is to guide the princess through an intricate system of mazes and optical illusions. However, the second part brings something a little different.

According to the developers, the basics of the new game are very similar to the first part. The story takes place in the same universe, but in completely new locations. Of course, these are again intertwined with various mazes and puzzles. Instead of the princess, however, we take on the role of mother Ro, who walks through the environment with her children. The main heroine of the second part is also the creator of the world we move through, so there will definitely be no need for some story overlap.
"We wanted to find the right reason to return to Monument Valley. The story of a mother who is not only a parent but also the creator of the world seemed great to us and we felt we had to tell it to our fans," said Dan Gray, lead developer at ustwo Games, about the sequel to the successful first installment.
According to him, the developers spent more than two years looking for the most talented people who would create a beautiful inspiring world for the second part. However, they definitely do not regret the time and unanimously agree that they are more than excited about the result.
A truly beautiful experience
But let's take a closer look at the game itself. As we have already mentioned in the previous lines, the new game returns to a familiar environment. Although the pleasant appearance of the landscape of Monument Valley follows on from the original part, new players do not need to play it to understand the entire game.
In the new adventures, we will encounter more sophisticated optical illusions than in the first part. It will now be possible to interact in different ways and invent new solutions. The new system of playing for two characters will help this a lot. Thanks to it, the tasks will be much more complicated and you will definitely stop at some of them for a good while.
In addition, the whole game has the touch of a work of art, which will certainly appeal to you with its aesthetics. Locations are created in really interesting geometric structures and can captivate the player.
All this is also connected with a beautiful sound. Immerse yourself in a fantastic world full of different melodies and interactive sounds that are precisely tailored to each step of your character.

I finished the first one and it was great. I bought a pair today but haven't gotten to it yet. The 150 CZK is definitely worth it. :)
