The Valley of the Architects App Reviews

Great puzzle game but iPad runs hot!

The concept of the game is well-thought-out and original, but there are many execution issues. The writing is spelled out in jumbled, typo-ridden English. There are ten stages a “level,” in addition to multiple tutorials, and progress is not saved at any point in the chapter. The graphics are fuzzy and glitchy. With an additional year spent developing this game, it could have been excellent, but at present, it reads as a prototype.

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 w

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.
