The banner saga is a brave, beautiful and original game that sends you into a rich and epic world of fantasy and mythology. Some have complained about its simplicity, but I find that in this case less is more. With still pictures full of life, a fascinating soundtrack and a great story that keeps you wondering if this will ever have a happy end. The banner saga borrows from Nordic myths, but instead of turning the old stories into number crunching and munchkin RPGing, they have twisted them into an original world that you feel compelled to explore.
Maybe the greatest tactical battle game of all time!
