Valiant Hearts : The Great War is the story of 4 crossed destinies and a broken love in a world torn apart. Dive into a 2D animated comic book adventure, mixing exploration, action and puzzles. Lost in the middle of the trenches, play as each of the 4 strangers, relive the War and help a young German soldier find his love.
The game tasks players with guiding four interconnected characters through the stories of World War I. At the heart of the experience are the various puzzles that players must solve to progress. These puzzles range from finding and manipulating objects to coordinating the unique abilities of each character. For example, players can leverage Emile's shovel to dig through the environment, Freddie's wire cutters to breach obstacles, and Anna's medical expertise to aid injured characters. Switching between the protagonists and utilizing their complementary skills is often key to overcoming the challenges.
In addition to the puzzle-solving, the game incorporates platforming and action sequences to provide variety. Players may need to time their jumps or navigate treacherous environments, adding an element of dexterity and reflexes to the experience. The action sequences, such as driving away from explosions or engaging in brief combat encounters, are seamlessly integrated into the gameplay, heightening the sense of tension and urgency.
One of the most beloved aspects is the inclusion of the player's canine companion, Walt. Walt can access areas the human characters cannot and assist in solving puzzles that require his unique capabilities. The bond between the player and Walt adds an emotional layer to the experience and encourages players to care for and protect their four-legged friend.
Throughout the game, players can discover various collectibles, such as letters, photographs, and historical facts about World War I. These collectibles not only provide additional context and depth to the narrative but also encourage players to explore the environment and uncover the rich history that serves as the backdrop for the experience.
