Siege of Valeria (Unfiltered Gamer): “I’m a huge fan of how the gameplay in Siege of Valeria is so streamlined. The accessibility and game length is perfect for a solo player looking to pick up a quick game after dinner or right before bed. The mechanics are simple and quickly take a backseat allowing you to spend the majority of your time wrestling with the perfect decisions.”
