The makers say people keep telling them that Monument Valley is the first game they’ve played. The first game they’ve wanted to. And I believe it because that’s pretty much me: I have played games, I do play Sudoku an awful lot, but that’s it. No interest in games, not usually. But Monument Valley is simply beautiful. And the one thing wrong with it is that it ends. You complete a little journey and then although you can go play it again, it’s never the same.

Now there’s more. If you have the game, there are more levels to it – doesn’t that sound so gamey? levels? – available for £1.49 as an in-app purchase. The game itself costs £2.49. Unbelievable. For such an absorbing, uplifting time.
