Especially considering the game is actually centered around perspectives and art design, it’s impressive that Monument Valley 2’s art style is so consistently surprising. The minimalistic shapes, soft palettes and smart use of highlights and shadows feed into a puzzle language that’s easy to grasp, but also full of curious optical illusions. Each ‘world’ and step of the story is tonally consistent in colour, and levels have carefully been designed to make you feel something. A dark, winding stairway downward feels like a descent into loneliness, and a puzzle on the top of a bright yellow tree makes you feel like you’re rising to meet the sun.
