Elegance is a word I'd use to describe Monument Valley, which is Amazon's free app of the day today. That's not a word I use very often and certainly not when it comes to mobile gaming, but if you watch our brief hands-on video above you should see what I'm talking about.
Coming from Amazon, Monument Valley is of course an Android game and I was super pleased to see it worked just fine on my BlackBerry Passport. The concept of the game is pretty straight forward as you just have to guide Ida, the silent princess, through the monuments. This is achieved just by tapping where you want her to walk.
There's plenty more to it than that though and rather than spoil the fun all I'm going to say is download this one - it's a real treat of a game.
Here's a few quotes I borrowed from Google Play:
"One of the very finest hours, and the value of such a thing is incalculable" - Kotaku
"Brilliant design... stayed with me like a dream I didn't want to forget... 9/10" - Polygon
"Monument Valley stuns with its serenity... each screen is a work of art" - Huffington Post
"Almost impossibly gorgeous... a feast for your senses... 5/5" - Touch Arcade

Get some free biking action with Touchgrind BMX on BlackBerry 10
