“They were pulled out of their usual life … They were thrown into the bloody mud of war … Once they were young men who learned to live and think. Now they are cannon fodder. Soldiers. And they learn to survive and not think. Thousands and thousands will forever lie on the fields of the First World War. Thousands and thousands of those who have returned will regret that they did not lie down with the dead. " (Remarque "All Quiet on the Western Front")
Ubisoft has released more than one great game, but in addition to colorful popular platformers, it was able to create an incredibly touching story that unfolds during the First World War.
Valiant Hearts takes place during the First World War, which began after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. This is not a classic quest in our understanding, there are many moments in it when you have to react quickly, otherwise you will simply die. And here you will control not one, but four completely different characters.
One of them is a young German guy Karl, who was forced to leave his family and go to the front. The second is the captured French Emil, Karl's son-in-law. The third is an American volunteer, Freddie, who is trying to avenge his deceased wife. And Anna, a Belgian nurse who dreams of bringing her father home.
In Valiant Hearts, you will plunge into the atmosphere of a real war, where bombs and bullets will constantly fly at you, find yourself in dirty trenches and on a battlefield strewn with the bodies of dead soldiers. As you progress, you will find a variety of items that repeat their real counterparts during the First World War.
In addition, you will be constantly told about real historical facts, shown photographs and documents of those times. Every detail in the game is carefully traced, and the magnificent music only emphasizes the tragic atmosphere of the events taking place. Optionally, you can purchase an album of songs from Valiant Hearts on iTunes.
There are almost no dialogues in the game, and all actions are indicated by conventional symbols in floating clouds. At the very beginning of the game, you will be taught all the skills that will come in handy during the game: walk, destroy obstacles, pick up a variety of things. Very often you will have to take objects and throw them in the manner of Angry Birds, sometimes blow up bridges and hide from bullets.
I don't want to reveal the plot of the game in advance. The only thing you should pay attention to is the price of Valiant Hearts. In addition to the cost of the game, you will have to pay for in-game purchases, without which you will never know how this touching story ended. After the price change in the Russian App Store, the whole game will cost you almost 900 rubles.
