Game Description

Featuring a unique interactive narrative style and imaginative hand-painted environments in dazzling full-HD, Bastion challenges players to build a new world from the broken remnants of the past. The goal of the game is to construct a safe haven in the wake of the Calamity, a cataclysmic event that shattered the world. As players journey into the wild unknown in search of survivors and supplies, they will confront strange beasts, forge an array of customizable weapons, and gain new powers from specially-brewed spirits. The entire play experience of Bastion is dynamically narrated, gradually revealing a rich backstory as the narrator reacts to the player's actions in real time, giving context and deeper meaning to their interactions. Gameplay is designed to reward finesse and experimentation through a crisp and responsive feel, while the suspenseful story unfolds at the player's own pace. Bastion is the debut title from Supergiant Games, an independent start-up studio founded by ex-designers of the Command & Conquer series.

  • Lush hand-painted 2D artwork presented in full HD
  • Active combat rewards finesse and experimentation
  • Multiple advancement options suit different play-styles
  • Innovative narration reacts to players in real-time

I love a game with an impressive storyline/lore. Trying not to ruin anything for anyone, you find out a lot of what happens to the environment of the game and have to make some pretty deep decisions to finish it. I loved this game and if I had the time, I would play the new game +.more
