Death in Valiant Hearts is almost always a matter of inconvenience rather than poignance. You can see the temptation of offering an active threat to players when you're trying to talk about an event which resulted in 8.5 million military deaths and millions more casualties, but its implementation threatens to undermine the whole game. There are falling shells, gunfire spattering an open stretch of battlefield or spotlights which expose your position when you're trying to escape capture. The Valiant Hearts team tries to inject a note of tension by peppering puzzles and story with sections where your character is in danger. Valiant Hearts: The Great War is a 2014 puzzle adventure game developed by Ubisoft Montpellier and published by Ubisoft.The game was released for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One in June 2014. The story isn't particularly challenging and barely touches on moral complexity or ambiguity, presumably for fear of losing sympathy for the main characters. There's Freddie, an American out for revenge Karl, a German separated from his French partner Marie and their son Victor and now fighting on the German side Emile, Marie's father who has been called up to fight for the French and Anna, a Belgian woman working as a medic and seeking her father. You play as four characters whose lives intertwine.
