Valley is a game of strong fundamentals that is mired by the execution of its grander ideas. Though it never comes together into a cohesive whole, it sometimes rises above the sum of its parts. I enjoyed playing it despite its issues, and I believe that Blue Isle Studios has a wonderful game in their future.
Aaron plays some Valley on the Switch and relearns how much fun it can be to walk, run and jump.
Valley might be more like a book than a video game; you pick it up, you experience its story to your satisfaction, you put it down.
COGconnected: Valley is full of soul and rich with life, yet even with beautiful graphics and an enjoyable narrative, there isn't much reason to come back to this overly serene sleeper.
Interesting how this bargain bin not-well received on other platforms tile is the life of the party on the Switch.
