Monument Valley 2 is an indie puzzle game developed and published by Ustwo Games. It is the sequel to the 2014 game Monument Valley, although it is not necessary to play it in order to play this game. It was released for iOS on June 5, 2017, as part of a surprise announcement during the 2017 Apple Worldwide Developers Conference. An Android version is currently in development.
Monument Valley 2 is presented from a top-down isometric view. The goal is to guide Ro and her child through mazes that include elements of optical illusions and impossible objects. The player can tap on the screen to move Ro and her child, or to trigger changes in the architecture of the level to allow the puzzle to be completed.
Monument Valley 2 received mostly positive reviews. On Metacritic, which assigns a score based on the average scores of other critics, Monument Valley 2 received a score of 85 out of 100 (generally favorable reviews).Polygon gave the game a score of 8 out of 10, calling it an "accomplished, charming game, though it stops just short of greatness" and saying it "successfully replicates the original's charm and vibrancy".Destructoid gave the game a score of 8 out of 10, praising the game for its improvements from its predecessor, noting "the puzzle design is two-steps above from the previous title."Gamezebo gave the game a score of 4.5 stars out of 5 praising the game's "phenomenally expressive storytelling with visuals and audio meshing seamlessly", the game's "new mechanics and old ones freshened up with dual protagonists" and that the game invites the player to explore and pays it off". However, like the game's predecessor, the main criticism Monument Valley 2 faced was the game's short length.
