Valiant Hearts is an adventure game, developed by Ubisoft Montepellier. It uses the Ubi Art Framework (used in games like Rayman and Child of Light). It tells a emotional story based on letters written during World War I. It revolves around several characters, what they go through, how the war affected them and their loved ones.
The gameplay is puzzled-based adventure story-telling at its best. The developers also punctuated the game with many collectibles and historical facts about the war, giving the game educational value as well.
By the time the credit rolls, you would have experienced how an aging farmer got conscripted, faced the horrors of war, how a young man yearns to return to his family, how a man strives to fight the war that destroyed his happiness and how a young nurse searched for her father and helping many survive along her way.
I am grateful that Ubisoft greenlit games like Valiant Hearts.
Valiant Hearts was included in March 2015 PS+ free games of the month.

Sounds like a good game to learn about the war from the viewpoint of a few different characters. Hope they do more games like this for different wars.
Yes. It is. In fact, our country could use this medium to tell some stories of our road to independence...leading to the dark years of civil unrest.
