Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a purely combat-focused game may find resident conversations and assignments interrupt the fighting.

- Players who require a polished release may be put off by the stated possibility of bugs and errors from its one-person development.
Our take on Valakas Story
Its mix of investigation, resident conversations, and combat gives the adventure a broader rhythm than a straightforward action game. That variety trades some focus for a story that moves between exploration, assignments, and fights, while one-person development brings the stated possibility of bugs and errors.
What is Valakas Story?
Play as Valakas, a 54-year-old rural game streamer from Russia, while investigating the events surrounding his sudden change in 2015.
Explore locations in the Russian countryside, speak with residents, complete their tasks, and follow clues connected to Valakas, his granddaughter Ralinka, and a masked figure named Denisk. Combat includes different enemy types, bosses, and combo attacks. The game presents fictional characters and events, with Russian-themed humor and hidden easter eggs in its handcrafted environments. Facial animation is included among its presentation features. The game was created by one person, and the vendor warns that bugs and errors are possible.
