The game's mechanics and controls are all solid. What stands out the most in Valiant Hearts is its beautiful comic book artsyle. The game utilizes this look amazingly and it really immerses you in the game. The minimal hud enhances this greatly. The game has a lot of content for its 15 dollar price tag and even has collectibles to find and lots of history logs to read about the war. The cartoony art style sets a good contrast against the dreary backdrop of WWI and helps add comical relief. The puzzles throughout the game constantly had me smiling while solving them. I'd highly recommend this game if you are looking for something different than the usual shooting/fighting games nowadays.… Expand

    Valiant Hearts is a simple puzzle, side scroller. Yet somehow between it's cartoon art style, the simple puzzles (complete with clues), and the 5 related stories of the playable characters, people seem to be enthralled with it. In my case players from 7-60's all played and finished it.

    This is largely a play through of history class around WWI. Overall it seems fairly comical but there are darker undertones as you progress through the connected narrative shared between multiple playable characters. There are slightly goofy elements like dodging mortar shells which seem contrived and take away from the deeper puzzle solving elements native to the genre.

Overall it seems fairly comical but there are darker undertones as you progress through the connected narrative shared between multiple playable characters. There are slightly goofy elements like dodging mortar shells which seem contrived and take away from the deeper puzzle solving elements native to the genre. The comic style visuals are effective and stylish, there are a few marquee items sprinkled throughout that add a slight wow factor. That being said color palette is shades of brown, which although fitting for the setting, does not impress overall other than with a sense of 'blah'. Generally there are not many of these. Expect most character to make one or two token gestures before exiting or dieing. Each stage has collectibles but they don't seem particularly relevant and are not tied to completion of each level. Treatment of the war is respectfully handled as both sides are represented as first and foremost human beings caught in the swells of a larger struggle. Sadly the more innovative mechanics are covered over with the all too frequent 'hide for cover until reload then run' schtick. The game never really achieves the frantic pace that I feel like it deserves.… Expand

    possibly a love or hate game. I loved it. The reason you would enjoy this game is nothing to do with getting that perfect 360 no scope double kill. The mechanics take a back seat to the story. If you liked brothers: a tale of two sons you already love this.

Why this didn't work for me I can't really put my finger on but It was a chore to play for me. I can only guess that it might have been the repetitiveness of the game that was the culprit. I hope this kind of game continues to be made but I think the developers need to work a bit on making them more fun to play. This sounds shallow to say this about a game that tries to let you feel what the first world war was like, which I think is does very well, but games still need to be fun to play.… Expand

At first glance, it seems like a plain side scrolling game like any other. After playing it for a few minutes, I was hooked and what I thought was going to be just a few minutes of play time ended up being hours and hours (and then day after day) of some great puzzle solving fun that I never dreamed could be implemented into a side scrolling program (this is like The Cave except easier on the puzzle solving. The game truly puts you into the atmosphere of the struggles of WWII I. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you' ll be excited one moment only to be challenged the next with a new puzzle. And the puzzles don't get old even though many are variations of others. Of all the thousands and thousands of games I've played, Valiant Hearts will always be one of the most memorable, fun and great side scrolling puzzlers I've ever played. For the $10 it costs, it would be sad for you to turn this precious gem of a game away. Kudos to the developer for doing everything right! My only (small, small) complaint is chapter 4 which makes you start at the beginning to go through a somewhat tough and lengthy level if you don't complete it. But this is really a small complaint on something which has offered me days and days, weeks and weeks of fun for a few dollars. It's worth $10 just to try it even if you don't end up liking it. The PopUp historical info is a sheer delight!! A must for any historical buff (but I think I already mentioned that).… Expand

    A well written and beautifully animated story taken place during the first world war. Which in itself is impressive because you don't see many games succeed based on that era. The story starts slow but by the end you are wrapped up with the characters and wondering what will happen next. Creative level design that mixes with difficulty. Absolutely loved it

We live in a time now when video games focus less on the horrible aspects of it, and more on glorying the action. What we are give here is a powerful alternative the action-packed war games that crowd shelves.

    It's an emotional and powerful story. One with charming characters and a heartbreaking tone and ending. Things aren't all gloom and doom though. In fact the game's graphic novel style graphics give it a charming vibe. There are even touches of goofy humor throughout. The game just knows the seriousness of the subject matter and isn't afraid to portray the horror of the war it takes place in (WWI). Despite the characters being fictional, the conflicts they often partake in and the facts the game give you aren't. The dose of history is appreciated.

    For all of it's excellent storytelling this game wouldn't be worth much if the actual gameplay were not enjoyable. Thankfully this is an excellent adventure game with some truly great puzzles. The puzzles themselves aren't too difficult, so it's a rather breezy experience. Yet there is a thoughtfulness to them that makes the satisfying to solve regardless. Just don't expect to find yourself racking your brain to find solutions here.

    Each character has different abilities. Your strategies for progressing will change based on which one you are controlling at any given time. There are also quite a few entertaining quick-time sections that serve as nice diversions from the typical puzzle solving.

    Overall Valiant Hearts is simply a wonderful game with an emotional tale to tell. One that focuses on a different side of war than most other games portray. It's human and it may just end up leaving you in tears by the time the credits roll, but the gameplay ensures that you are having fun all the way through it.    … Expand

    This is a good game for kids under 10. It has a beautiful soundtrack and great history lessons. Because this is supposed to be a light-hearted game, it often chooses to hide away from emotional moments and replace them to silly Benny Hill routines. Adults may find the gameplay a bit too repetitive and the story too silly. Obviously, we're not the target audience.

Despite its lack of replay-ability, Valiant Hearts shows something that is rare in games today. It is a game that focuses on the emotional toll and personal stories in war instead of the gruesome violence of the front lines. Valiant Hearts tells a compelling story that is sure to get the player emotional. A lot of it is due to its art: music and visual.

    The music in Valiant Hearts is one of my favorite in any video game. The reason being so isn't because of necessary how "catchy" it is, but the impact it makes on the story. The driving scenes relish these classical pieces by making movements based on the melody and beats. It's such a simple and clever trick that made me smile. The music just fits every scenario. From the streets of Paris and the upbeat "Get Aboard" track to the slow piano in the main menu, the music is spectacular.

    As for the graphics, in a world of AAA titles with insanely realistic graphics, Valiant Hearts takes a step back in style, but not in effect. Despite cartoon-like visuals, this game looks great. It fits and it doesn't need realistic graphics to make it a visual wonder.

    It lacks replay-ability, but it excels in telling a compelling story and succeeds in nearly every other area.    … Expand
