This game scratches my itch for a mid-core strategy game that I can dip into on my own schedule. I’m a fan of the fantasy setting and the blend of kingdom-building elements with the idle auto-battler gameplay. The short bursts of combat are perfect for when I don’t have a ton of time.

Performance-wise, it’s been stable with only minor bugs here and there. The developers seem active in the community, pushing updates to polish the experience. There’s definitely room for more content — like additional hero factions or co-op modes — but what’s here is solid...

I usually avoid “idle” games because they can feel mindless, but Valefor manages to spice things up with clever crafting and tactical hero selection. It’s not just about collecting random loot - you really have to figure out which merges benefit your overall synergy. That layer of strategy saves it from being another grindy clicker.

At first, I thought the pacing was slow, but once I understood how to optimize synergy among my heroes, it got more engaging. My only real complaint so far is that some of the dungeons can feel repetitive if you’re not changing up your team composition. But if you like experimenting with different lineups, you won’t get bored too quickly.

Overall, it's surprisingly deep for an indie game, and the unique crafting mechanic kept me engaged. It’s perfect if you enjoy strategic progression without constant button-mashing. Just be aware that at higher levels, it can get a bit grind-heavy unless you plan your merges well. Definitely worth a try if you like midcore strategy games with a puzzle twist.
