    欧美漫画风的小品解谜游戏，育碧的小游戏都不错的说，难度不高，偶有卡关的，中间有一关以物换物想到了织梦岛。 故事还是挺不错的虽然主角光环影响战局比较扯。 打完后的感觉是希望不再有战争。

    La ambientación del juego es bastante buena, me gusta mucho su estética cartoon, además de su gran banda sonora, me gustan mucho todos los datos reales que van dando sobre la 1º Guerra Mundial, te hace que te metas bastante la historia, si hay algún pero que ponerle es su escasa duración apenas unas 7 u 8 horas, y el gameplay a veces se hace tosco en algunos momentos, le falta dinamicidad.

    Nice and small game about WWI, with creative mechanics and nice history pictures and facts. This is really the one, where you play and learn a lot.

    Valiant Hearts: The Great War is an extremely linear, extremely easy, and extremely… okay adventure game that deals with the real, non-romanticised side of the first World War. Sadly while a product that's deeply engrossing, technically flawless, and simply beautiful to look at, its core, the story and characters, doesn't manage to ever become the riveting war drama that it is supposed to.

    It doesn’t quite underscore the horrors of the war, but Valiant Hearts does a pretty good job of telling a great story while supplementing it with facts about a very harsh reality that occurred a hundred years ago. The puzzle styled gameplay doesn’t seem typical for this type of setting, but the gameplay is balanced in such a way that it works. There are instant-death mechanics, which totally makes sense, but also a generous hint system so I never felt like I was trapped in a certain situation.

    Valiant Hearts: The Great War was a great and necessary story and game in 2014, and that stands for 2018 too. Not everything is perfect and it’s not for everyone, but there is great value in the story it tells and what can be discovered about a time overshadowed by the Second World War. If you want a game that’s doesn’t celebrate War but wants to teach you the futility of War, then Valiant Hearts is that game.
