Ustwo Games infographic showcases success, and cost, of beautiful Monument Valley game

Monument Valley is a game, it is a puzzle, and it is a work of art. Still, many people groaned at the price of admission for what was initially only 10 levels of game-play. The expansion of Forgotten Shores was available late last year as an in-app purchase.
The gang at Ustwo Games put together an infographic showcasing the success of the game as well as what it cost to create in the first place, and some of the numbers are quite surprising. The first iteration of Monument Valley took over a year to build, and cost over $850,000. The Forgotten Shores expansion took a little over half a year, and was over half-a-million-dollars in the making.

The US, China, UK, and Germany are the biggest markets where Monument Valley has taken off. About half of all players that start it, finish it. Perhaps the most stunning statistic, more than 2 million totems have been drowned, have you no heart?
