    Whatever you do, make sure you view a video of the gameplay before you even considering purchasing this. All it takes is a few seconds and you will know whether you are going to waste money on this or not. Its like watching the old windows 95 stars screensaver, literally. That what the majority of the gameplay looks like.

    The Vale provides a incredibly novel and immersive experience with outstanding voice acting and sound design.

    10 out of 10 for an interesting concept and to counter the idiotic Arkane7 review who obviously hates disabled people.

    I've actually played this game is at least a 8 out of 10 for great story and really different gameplay. I'm giving it a 10 to counter trolling or misunderstanding from Arkane7. This is an audio game and should be judged as one.

    A unique design concept and a grand adventure await those who venture into The Vale: Shadow of the Crown with some of the finest use of voice acting to date, but those without adequate audio resources might have an incomplete experience.

    The Vale: Shadow of the Crown is utterly unique but it’s one of those games you just have to take a chance on. If I had one criticism it is that there are maybe too many fighting sections and not enough in terms of exploration. But overall this is a brilliant experience and something that any player will remember for a long time to come.

    Overall, The Vale: Shadow of The Crown is a game that brings to light a rarely experienced disability for many gamers whilst also showcasing just how much audio can bring a game to life. With fantastic storytelling, engaging gameplay and a story that keeps things fresh from start to finish, this is certainly one of 2021’s standout titles and will no doubt spawn new audio focussed titles in the future.
