Released by Stampede Games, Evo Explores is a new puzzler for Android. Designed in the same style as Monument Valley, this game uses optical illusions and M C Escher style visuals to be the framework for the puzzles. Within this game, players will be assuming the eponymous role of Evo, a little robo, whose job it is to explore other planets.

Oddly enough for Evo, he ends up exploring what appears to be an abandoned world known as the Byte Planet. What sets that apart is that, on the Byte Planet, the conventional laws of physics don't apply. For example, if there's a gap in a pathway, that gap is no longer "there" if the player can hide it from view. As players continue to explore this mysterious world, they will find out what happened to the population that once inhabited it, and how to solve that dilemma.

Evo Explores Features:

• In Evo Explores you should trust your eyes. If something looks real - it is real! If you don't see a problem - there is no problem at all.
• Manipulate impossible surreal structures, explore optical illusions and solve mind blowing puzzles. Every new level will unravel the history of Byte planet and its citizens.
• Evo is a space explorer. Every planet he visits is full of mysteries. But the Byte planet is unique. Regular physical laws don't work here. Even the gravity is under control of your imagination.
• Evo Explores was inspired by a beautiful game Monument Valley. We are big fans of original game but we love Evo Explores even more

The game's mechanics are simple, in that players will either tap where they would like Evo to go, or turn dials and slide objects around, to change the perspective of where Evo can go. You can check out some of the gameplay with the video below.

Evo Explores is available from Google Play for $0.99. However, you have a chance to win one of the 10 promo codes we have for Evo Explorers.
