More intense than i thought. Good story, good game. Back when Ubisoft still produced games with soul.
Came for a chill puzzle game, left an emotional wreck. Valiant Hearts somehow made WWI feel both educational and genuinely heartbreaking, which is a sentence I never expected to type. The art style is gorgeous, the puzzles are simple but satisfying and the story will absolutely dismantle you if you have even one feeling left in your body. Also the dog is the best character, no debate. It's not perfect, though. Some sections drag a little, but when it hits, it really hits. [b][8/10][/b]
10/10 would play again. This is the only game which I've ever cried to, if your thinking of getting this game, YOU SHOULD.
