    Despite its flaws, Operation Valkyrie proves to be a beautiful adventure game that manages to completely immerse the gamer in the most terrible war to take place in human history. It showcases exceptional atmosphere, a very intriguing story and has a low price to boot. [March 2012]

    As it stands, A Stroke of Fate is a flawed adventure tightly wrapping itself around WWII's history. At the same time, it sorely lacks the same ambitious spirit behind its gorgeous visuals to make the most of its promising premise.

    A game with a good historic contestualization, but with poor audio and some gameplay issues.

    This contributes to the overall feeling that A Stroke of Fate: Operation Valkyrie is exactly what it is: about half of a game. It's got pretty good writing, a decent aptitude for historical authenticity, and entirely okay art design, but it's wrapped up in a very bland package that lacks ambition, depth, length, and a single moment of tolerable voice acting.

    A solid idea but lackluster excution as well as clunky controls make this game hard to enjoy and even get past the early stages without seeking help in the poorly written manual. Full Review »
