    Mini Review: Remembering the first world war

    Valiant Hearts is a good puzzle game that manages to respect the setting it is portraying. Sure the cartoon art style may clash a bit with the horrors it is showing but it manages to still be effective at telling a compelling story with only a narrator. Some of the puzzles do slow down the pacing of the game every now and then yet it is always a unique puzzle that requires the player to do something new to solve it. The best thing this game does is that it makes you care about the cast of characters that have been thrown into the first great war. By the end you will be hoping that they all make it to the end of the story. Even the collectibles are worth picking up since learning about the facts of each object was interesting. After playing this I went directly into learning more about WW1 since I don't know to much about it. Check this game out if you enjoy a puzzle game with some good narrative to go along with it.
