Indie developer Whaleo has dropped a stunning new trailer for The Valley of the Architects, the studio’s upcoming narrative puzzle adventure on iOS and Steam. The game lets you dive into the mind of architectural writer Liz as she reveals the intriguing narrative of the lost Architect across Africa, all while solving challenging puzzles along the way.
In The Valley of the Architects, you can look forward to putting your puzzle prowess to the test as you aim to clear the trials using only elevators. As you progress through the game, you’ll uncover the story of the eccentric “Architect Q” across gorgeous worlds presented with minimalist visuals.
The game also mesmerises you with its engrossing soundtrack, adding to the overall charm of the fully-voiced story as you complete your articles in the pages of Architectural Abstract.
