"Monument Valley disrupts the traditional game design paradigm in a number of ways" Seems like a statement by someone who doesn't really play computer games (or only plays triple-A FPS console titles). Although cool and well-designed, Monument Valley is hardly unique among video games for being calm and contemplative. Cf. Journey (2012), The Endless Forest (2005), Ico (2001), Shadow of the Colossus (2005), etc. If you want to go down the rabbit hole of the really disruptive (to the point of almost outright hostile) approach to making video games, I have always loved the work of increpare[0], who is sort of the John Waters of indie video games.
