There are very few trailers that genuinely make me want to buy or play a game. At E3 this year though, there were several cinematics that had me drooling just a little bit. Titles like Assassins Creed Unity and Rise of the Tomb Raider for example really grabbed my interest. Then there was the announcement for Valiant Hearts: The Great War. That trailer is still one of my favourites! Thankfully the game is quite good, living up somewhat to the hype it created. It’s available on just about every platform now, including Android.
Here’s the trailer and press release (via Joystiq)
Today Ubisoft announced that Valiant Hearts: The Great War™, the puzzle-adventure game set during World War I, will be available on November 26th on Google Play Store and Amazon Appstore. Additionally, the interactive comic book Dogs of War will also be available for free to all Valiant Hearts: The Great War™ owners on iOS and Android devices.
This mobile version introduces intuitive controls that have been optimized to give the player a smooth gameplay experience. The puzzle-based gameplay on mobile platforms offers completely rethought touch controls and an immersive way to interact with history. This version also includes detailed historical content and the ability to seamlessly share interesting facts on social media channels.
I have searched the Google Play Store and it is available already. If I’m not mistaken, the full package costs R204,49. Alternately, you can buy the first episode for R59,99 to see what the title is all about. The others are purchasable thereafter within the game itself.
I have STILL not played Valiant Hearts myself. Have you played it? Should I have picked it up months ago when it came out? I’m not a fan of those damn onion ninjas that will surely appear if I play it!

So It’s More Expensive than the Steam Version? That’s Ubi for you!

It’s worth more than I paid for it (which was full price).

Yup… I was lucky to get it with a PSN discount (on launch). But woulda gladly paid full price too.

This is the game that I’ve been recommending to most people this year. It just reminded me so much of what good games used to be before graphics and size and your momma was there.
This is a work of electronic art, not the kak EA has been spewing.

This game doesn’t need a sale. It’s brilliant. One of the few games this year that I really felt was worth it’s price and then some.

I don’t like mobile games, but I think Valiant Hearts is a brilliant game and could work well for them on mobile.

It’s a superb narrative driven experience with a beautiful and distinctive art style. One of my favourites of the year. Sadly overlooked by most people. And thankfully immune to the usual Ubi-issues.

I agree. One of the best games I’ve played this year.
