Valley of No Roads Reviews

A lovely and relaxing puzzle game.

Wow! That was a total waste of time. Gimme back my money.

Low quality riddle game. Not worth any money.

I would love to play this game, but the control in it is a real torture. Hotkeys are set counterintuitively, blocks cannot be selected by clicking the mouse, some functions such as demolition or movement remained inaccessible to me, since there is no information on which keys are controlled either in the tutorial or in the menu. At the same time, the idea is cool and the visual part too! It is a pity to give up this game, but it is impossible to play it at this stage.

The game looks beautiful, and I wish I could say good things, but unfortunately, the game is borderline unplayable. The tutorial is worthless; it doesn't tell you the game controls, and there is no way to look them up. The gameplay expects the player to perform tasks that it doesn't explain how to accomplish. Anything you manage to build before you inevitably run out of pieces looks dead and lifeless. Look up Islanders instead, it's a much stronger version of what this wants to be.

It's a puzzle game, that cane be infuriating at times. I managed a highscore and i have no idea how i made it and has been unable to repeat it..

A clever concept of a game, however it is unplayable now. The achievements bugged out for me, despite reaching over 800 points in a game it locked me at 452 in achievement progress. I verified integrity of files, played a game; no change. I uninstalled and reinstalled the game on both HD and SSD and I got a change, but it was a screen where I could not click anything or reach the menu through mouse or keyboard. Re-verifying integrity of files does nothing to change this. I probably got this game on sale, but even a small amount would be a waste.

Tutorial could be clearer, help dialogues could be a little bit better, but all over a verry nice puzzle game. Challanging and cute. Yes it needs improvement, but it is promising! I love it so far.

Tutorial is unclear and undirected - it just generates a small map and tells you rules after you've clicked down a bunch of pieces. Tool tips that show up for the tutorial no longer show up for the main game, because you've obviously memorized what these blocky, ill-defined shapes do and don't need any refresher, right? Then the game is just putting down pieces in weird configurations and the game ending because it didn't randomly generate a Town Hall that can get you new pieces in a place that you could reach with your pieces. This isn't much of a game and isn't interesting. If you want puzzle-placement that feels like city building and allows ranked play, go get Dorfromantik or The Islanders. Those are actually good versions of what this is trying to be, and have similar price points.
