Get ready for an intriguing journey with The Valley of the Architects, an upcoming elevator-based puzzler slated for release in March. If you found our previous coverage of this narrative puzzle adventure intriguing, you won't have to wait much longer to dive in.
In The Valley of the Architects, you step into the shoes of Liz, a writer on a quest in Africa to unravel the mysteries left by the enigmatic Lost Architect. As Liz, you'll navigate through a series of elevator-based puzzles, piecing together the secrets of the architect's designs, all while Liz herself narrates her compelling journey.
Our editor Catherine was effusive in her praise when we first covered this upcoming release, and it's easy to see why. The game masterfully blends the joy of puzzle-solving with the immersive experience of a fully voice-acted storyline, allowing you to experience the adventure from Liz's perspective.
Catherine's enthusiasm for The Valley of the Architects is understandable. Puzzlers that focus on a single core mechanic, offering varied twists throughout the game, often provide a more seamless and enjoyable experience compared to those that try to include too many elements.
While the visual design of The Valley of the Architects boasts gorgeously detailed buildings, their appearance may be somewhat diminished on smaller screens. Despite this, there's no doubt that many of you are eagerly anticipating its launch on iOS and Steam in March.
