Valor is not a game for people looking to build pretty, pretty castles. This is war. Decisions have consequences. Use each building, troop, and alliance to determine your fate: conquer or be conquered. Welcome to Trial by Sword. "Best strategy game I've ever played. A shining gem in the world of strategy gaming" "Great game with an edge of life or death." Player versus player combat is the heart of Valor. Convince, coerce and conquer those around you to survive and thrive. Guilds will reign supreme upon the backs of new and lasting friendships that extend beyond the game (and occasionally spinning off a marriage or two). Other alliances will be shattered by a single player's treachery. Valor is not a game; it’s a way of life. Features: - Highly competitive environment with deeply strategic combat. - Control hundreds of cities to create a lasting empire. - Join a guild, conquer enemy players and claim a world. - Vie for entry into the Tournament of Champions. - Earn titles and premium items through superior play. - Experience multiple game modes. Welcome to Valor, Lords and Ladies. Bring your galoshes, it’s gunna get messy. You need a wifi connection to download Valor HD.

The game is dead. ### 5/5 — Is It Over? *2026-03-30, version 3.3.3* Must have been playing 20+ years. Valor Trial by Sword was working up to about 3/24/26. Now is always ‘We’re busy updating Valor for you and will be back shortly’ Is it over? ### 1/5 — Not Updated / No longer active *2025-08-08, version 3.3.3* I used to play this game years back. It was great. I tried getting back into it again; however, it’s not working like it’s supposed to. The worlds don’t exist. I’m unable to join any new worlds. I got put into the same world I was in 5+ years back with a baby city amongst huge players. So far, it seems like it might be a dead server /world, but let’s see. ### 5/5 — 5 stars *2024-04-09, version 3.3.3* Best game app by far. Has a great selection of different speed worlds. Amazing bonds are created through playing together as a team against others. With a great and welcoming community ### 1/5 — Unplayable *2022-02-07, version 3.3.3* Game used to be great. Now with the ownership neglecting the game it has become unplayable. This coming from a 10 year player. This app should be removed from the apple App Store. Google has already removed it from the play store. A game with high potential and from what it used to be. A great example how a bad ownership group can ruin a good game. At this point every dollar they receive from Valor is theft. ### 1/5 — Pay to Win *2022-02-04, version 3.3.3* Wer genug bezahlt gewinnt und kann die Städte andere Spieler komplett zerstören…. Nur was für machtgeile egomanen mit zu viel Geld. ### 1/5 — Great concept but terrible implementation. *2021-05-22, version 3.3.3* The game itself is great, there are a few bugs and iOS has an update that android lacks. The reason the game is being given one star is because it is largely pay to win, and the community is so competitive that they will do anything to capture your city when you are not playing. Free 8 hr shields and it may get 3 stars, but beyond that you’ll have to buy them from me ### 1/5 — Developer support *2020-10-08, version 3.3.3* I've played this game for about 9 years. It's had its ups and downs, and it's changed hands many times. Playmesh was good, and since quark took over, the games gone downhill. My review is based on developer support, or actually the lack of. I have a game related issue.. And I emailed support for help. It's been over a week and no reply. Go into app and log in to ask a question for support? That's my issue, the app won't let me register. So I'll post here, maybe they'll pay attention. ### 1/5 — Don’t Bother *2020-10-07, version 3.3.3* This was once one of my favorite games. I have made lots of friends on this game as well. It’s really sad that it’s turned into two main groups fighting back and forth. No desire to bring in new players while others slowly leave. For once I can say that in my 8+ years of playing Valor, I’m done. The worlds don’t last long enough and there is no where near enough players to get the true old school valor experience. If you’re looking for a game don’t choose this one. They don’t care about new players and won’t help you. I really hope someone can save this game because it was AMAZING but that was a long time ago. ### 5/5 — Le meilleur en temps réel *2020-04-28, version 3.3.3* Je redécouvre ce jeu pour y avoir jouer il y a quelques années.....simple et efficace comme on les aime.
