Gameplay

Valley is a first person action-adventure single-player video game. The player explores a futuristic, secluded setting inspired by the Rocky Mountains. Early on, the player discovers the L.E.A.F (Leap Effortlessly though Air Functionality) suit, a remnant of some experiments conducted during World War II. The suit gives superhuman abilities that must be used to explore the vast valley with forests, ruins and magical creatures. The player character is somehow linked to the valley, having the ability to take and give life, but not without consequence.
