Video Review - Valiant Hearts: The Great War

Valiant Hearts: The Great War is a 2D adventure game from Ubisoft Montpellier. It is one of the few games set in World War I and one of the few war games to focus on puzzle solving rather than combat.

The cartoonish style seems off putting for such a serious subject. However in practice the emotional attachment is that much more surprising and effective due to its first glance appearances.This is adventure/puzzle game first and foremost. You won't really be doing any shooting or combo breakers. Something I found rat...
