Bastion

Bastion is one of those games where almost every part of it just works. The hand-painted art style looks fantastic, the soundtrack is phenomenal, and the narrator might be one of my favourite uses of voice acting in a game. Having him react to pretty much everything you do gives the whole journey so much personality. The combat is simple but satisfying, and there's enough weapon variety to keep things interesting. It's a charming little game with a surprising amount of heart, and I absolutely loved my time with it. I even had to replay it after finishing it, and I've listened to the OST multiple times outside the game; it's that good. An incredible start for Supergiant Games.

everything supergiant makes is gold.

Supergiant Games' ambitious first effort is still one of their best: a beautifully crafted story of Calamity and loss, including an all-timer soundtrack and the always excellent Logan Cunningham as a reactive narrator. Combat is easy to pick up and encourages experimentation, and there's plenty of challenges and high scores to chase after. A must play.

one of the classics. i even did the challenge stuff to 100% this game. and whatever that narrator got paid, its not enough. that guy was great. the only bad thing i could say. is buying the OST's. the OST's only give you MP3 files. most games also give you a WAV or a FLAC file. that is the whole reason i buy music, for the WAV or FLAC files. and this game dus not give you that. that aside, great classic

[4/5] Excellent. A charming game, with a ton of soul and an amazing narrator and soundtrack.

OId game and good 7.5/10
