East London digital design studio ‘ustwo’ is an agency that prides itself on enhancing user interaction and user-friendly interface designs in their digital entertainment products, and the agency's latest venture, Monument Valley, is just that. Combining high-tech with an element of mischief, the Monument Valley app is inspired by M.C. Escher, a Dutch graphic artist known to produce impossible constructions of architecture and tessellations.
The app is visually stunning design that features the player leads a princess through an intricate world of hidden pathways, secret passageways, concealed staircases and endless walkways. The game is seemingly infinite as tessellations pile and grow on top of each other, revealing another dimension of architecture.
The sleek and visually pleasing teaser trailer is now released to hype up the release due in the New Year.
