Banner Saga

Why 5 stars

Aesthetics: 100% Game is heavily based on its aesthetics and name. Remember that Saga word? And it is amazingly beautiful - backgrounds, animations, heroes. Review could be finished here. But let's go through some rants. Turn-based combat: 90% One flaw. You cannot rotate camera. And at some point, when hero is surrounded by swarm of the enemies, you end up clicking somewhere, hoping that you chose exactly that enemy you want to attack. Everything else is a rant. It is turn-based combat and such is the rules. Devs tried to balance it and I think they've succeeded. Dialogues: 100% They exist. And give you choices. And sometimes these choices are difficult and may even lead to a hero's death (don't be afraid, these are not main characters crucial for the story). They are somewhat narrow and limited. But it is a saga, you've been told a story here. See aesthetics part. Small 2D sprites walking through backgrounds. It is ingenious. What is another way to decrease pathos? I had so much fun with it. And yes, see aesthetics.
