Roterra is an isometric puzzle adventure that will turn your world upside while challenging your mind with satisfying problem-solving. To regain her throne, Princess Angelica, the rightful ruler of Roterra, must travel through beautifully detailed forests, caves, and castles where the land itself has been manipulated against her. By rotating, sliding, elevating, and spinning the world around her, the Princess must solve the labyrinths and overcome the obstacles set in her path by the evil usurper. The ever-changing, gravity-defying environment of Roterra allows the princess to literally turn the world upside down on her quest to reclaim her Queenship.

An elegant puzzler Has a nice vibe in the Monument Valley corner of the puzzle world. Nice show progression of puzzle difficulty and satisfying look and feel.

Tolles Spiel Selten habe ich ein so motivierendes Spiel gehabt. Die Spielmechanik ist einzigartig, und auch wenn es mal nicht sofort ersichtlich ist, wie es weitergeht, probiert man solange, bis man die Lösung hat.

Polished, Creative 3D Puzzler This should be a Game of the Week. It is just hard enough (although I expect it to get harder), really pretty, and quite a lot of fun. This is sort of Scalak meets Monument Valley...

An Inspiring Story

The developers were inspired by “Orlando Furioso” – the 16th-century epic Italian poem by Ludovico Ariosto – to create the rich storyline, colorful characters, and fairytale world behind Roterra. The constantly shifting environments also reflect the many conflicting points-of-view in the poem. The game’s female protagonist, Angelica, challenges medieval depictions of women as helpless accessories. Angelica is determined and brave – but she’s also shrewd enough to know when to fight and when to run. Despite her ethereal white dress, Angelica is no damsel in distress. From the beginning of the game, you can sense her determination represented by her confident stride through forests, castles and caves alike. Angelica is a force to be reckoned with.

Once Upon a Time ...
Angelica, the rightful Queen of Roterra, has lost her kingdom to her older brother, Orlando – who has become addicted to the magical powers bestowed to those who wear the crown. She now finds herself deep in the forest, alone ... doing everything within her reach to return home! With traitorous knights hot on her heels, Angelica must face challenging puzzles and other hazards to make a safe return and reclaim her kingdom – one puzzle at a time.
