Aarik and the Ruined Kingdom: A Mobile Puzzle Adventure Arrives January 25th
Shatterproof Games' perspective puzzle game, Aarik and the Ruined Kingdom, is launching on mobile devices on January 25th, 2025. Pre-registration is now open on Android, seven months after its Steam debut.
A Charming Puzzle Journey
Players take on the role of Aarik, an adorable prince tasked with restoring his crumbling kingdom. His father is magically slumbering, and it's up to Aarik to solve the kingdom's problems—not with swords or spells, but with his wits and a magical crown.
Gameplay revolves around perspective-shifting puzzles. Players will rotate, drag, and manipulate the game world to create pathways, repair ancient ruins, and prevent further collapse.
Over 90 puzzles are spread across 35 levels, each challenging players' spatial reasoning. Aarik's crown gains upgrades, such as time reversal and the ability to reveal hidden paths. Helpful creatures will also assist along the way. See the game in action:
Familiar Charm, Unique Challenges
Visually, Aarik and the Ruined Kingdom bears a resemblance to Monument Valley, featuring vibrant and diverse landscapes including mystical forests, icy tundras, and mysterious swamps. The game's aesthetic evokes a relaxing, fairytale atmosphere.
Pre-register on the Google Play Store now! The full game will cost $2.99 upon release, but the first eight levels are free to play.
