Assemble With Care is a puzzle video game developed by the same studio that created the acclaimed Monument Valley. In this game, you'll play Maria, a traveling restorer of antique items who has just arrived in Bellariva. The story is the game's strong point, as it focuses on broken relationships and the art of rebuilding them.
Assemble With Care has an original gameplay, and in each level, you'll have to repair an object damaged for some reason or other. The damaged thing appears on your screen placed on the floor or a table, and you'll have to explore around to find out what's happened to it and how to fix it. The first few levels are simple— you'll repair figurines that have been broken by gluing them together or change the batteries of a cassette player. As you progress through the game, you'll have to think carefully about how to repair an object or further investigate how a particular broken piece works, increasing the puzzle's difficulty. To move the things, just swipe with your finger to rotate the damaged part and tap one of the available tools to select it.
There is a point to repairing so many objects in Assemble With Care. Each item Maria tries to fix is a window into the lives of Bellariva's residents. As you explore and solve these puzzles, it's not just technical problems you'll encounter but also the emotions and memories associated with these objects. This interaction with the characters will help you deepen your understanding of them, accept their imperfections, and, in the end, support them in their healing process. In Assemble With Care, you'll accompany Maria on her mission, which isn't only the physical reparation of damaged objects but also the emotional side to them, trying to heal both visible and hidden wounds.
The artistic design in Assemble With Care is truly an impressionist masterpiece, where each setting has been drawn by hand and reflects the detail and care with which it was made. The soundtrack is inspired by the sounds of the 80s, fitting the objects that must be repaired throughout the game. In addition, Assemble With Care features exceptional dubbing in Russian, English and Spanish.
Assemble With Care is an experience whose message is about the importance of memories, knowing how to let go, and the healing of wounds. If you like puzzles and want to enjoy a story about repair and care, download the APK.
