    A Valley Without Wind is a game you've really got to stick with. It has randomly-generated worlds, tons of monsters and spells, and it just seems like it'll be a fantastic game. Unfortunately, it just doesn't live up to what I expected it to be.

The gameplay is deep, and you will notice how hours go by without even noticing them, but it just gets boring after a while, grinding to get the right materials. It doesn't always feel like a grind, but you can tell it's there. It's a mediocre game that could be greatly improved with a large patch later. Expand

    After checking out the screenshots and stuff I thought it looked pretty interesting, so I went and got it. It has a bunch of really interesting ideas like settlement building and things, but after about an hour and a half, I just realised I wasn't having fun at all.

    Strange style, strange story, strange music and strange concept incorporated into a highly addictive ensemble. With literally thousands of dungeons and many diverse missions and regions you can spent many hours exploring and progressing through the vast world of Environ.

    It does get a bit repetitive over time, but still there is a good number of content just waiting to be explored.

    Valley lacked any redeeming fun factor to make up for the time I spent playing the game. While the game offers plenty of opportunity to explore a wide world, there is no real story that explains where you are going or where you are.

    A hideous collage of unconsidered platforming and vapid combat in a procedural world bleached of meaning. [Aug 2012, p.70]

    Don't hope to be blown away. Little stirs in this valley. [June 2012, p.56]
