| Monument Valley 2

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire? Jack Frost nipping at your nose? In reality, Christmas isn't anything like the movies. We rarely get snow in the UK, and we know more Scrooges than Santa Clauses.

But it's not all bad. To help spread some Christmas cheer, Pocket Gamer has decided to run its very own Advent Calendar. Each day, we'll give away one of the best games of the year from December 1st right up to Christmas day itself.

We don't want to spoil the surprise, so we'll publish the complete list of our best games of 2017 after Christmas. That's right in time for the January sales anyway, so you can grab yourself some of them on the cheap if you don't win.

But enough of all that. Let's take a look at today's offering.

Monument Valley 2

If you haven't heard of Monument Valley yet, you must have been living under a rock. It's arguably mobile's killer app, with gorgeous visuals, a haunting soundtrack, and challenging perspective puzzles.

The sequel ups the ante with even more challenging gameplay and a new co-op mechanic. You have to help a mother and daughter through a variety of levels.

We were really quite taken with Monument Valley 2, giving it an esteemed Platinum Award and describing it as: "A breathtaking piece of work that really needs to be played to be fully understood".

Pop it in my stocking, would you?
