Monument Valley is a puzzle game in which the player controls a princess through various mazes. It has been downloaded over 160 million times around the globe and has won a number of awards. Designed around optical illusions and earning comparisons to the works of M.C. Escher, the upcoming film will reportedly be a live-action/CGI hybrid. It will center around a live-action set of characters who become trapped in the ethereal and unique puzzles and have to try to find their way out.

“Monument Valley is a one of a kind experience, at once small in its meditative, simple gameplay, as well as enormous in its sense of history,” said Osborne in a statement to Deadline. “I’m privileged to be handed the reins to Ida’s mysterious kingdom, to play in her world of impossible architecture where seeing things differently is everything.”

Directed by Patrick Osborne, Monument Valley does not yet have a release date.
