Hey TouchArcade, Michael here from WHALEO announcing a new voice-narrated puzzle game: The Valley of the Architects. Beta is currently open via testflight, send your testflight info to media @ whaleo.com . Looking forward to your feedback. Description The Valley follows Liz, an architectural writer, across the looming regions of Africa as she tries to uncover the story of the mysterious architect. As she reaches each summit she is presented with puzzles hidden in each monument. Using her skills, she will have to overcome each puzzle. As the story unravels around her it becomes clear that there is nothing quite like a waltz though The Valley... Screenshots (Gameplay trailer coming soon)
Honestly I don’t know if it’s just me but I didn’t make it very far, I found the visuals looked great but it also made it difficult for me to properly see everything clearly so I gave up.
Thanks for playing! When you say difficult to see what in particular? The player? Where to go? Something else? Appreciate the feedback

Hey TA! Quick update for The Valley of the Architects, it's been awhile. Long story short, game was delayed to get the steam version in order. The steam version is more of a separate game with significant changes. You can check it out here. However, I haven't left the iOS version in the background. Here's a list of major upgrades for the iOS version: Update to graphics and level design New mechanics including moving walls and laser switches Revised Puzzles More options/settings (including Ambient Occlusion and Temporal Anti-Aliasing New Music Check out the latest trailer below and PREORDER the game now here. Pricing may change but preorder will lock you in to the cheapest price at launch and will also help boost store presence on launch day so would be a big help! Looking forward to hearing from you all! Best, Mike
