The Banner Saga

So, in this review we will focus on the game called «The Banner Saga», which was originally created for the PC, but got two solid awards «Geekies 2014" and «Gameswelt 2014", as well as a dozen nominations in various categories, its developers decided to cut some money to complete, that is to port your masterpiece on all existing gaming platforms. Incidentally, in the description on the Play Store means a minimum display resolution for Current news is 960x640, which immediately repels many gamers with less advanced devices, so that's all this is nonsense, you have enough for the eyes and 800x480.

The game's story is based on the ancient Scandinavian dowry, and tells the story of how people once united with horned giants calling himself Varley, jointly expelled in Black Heath stone monsters Drago. Well, after that everything was as usual, lived not bemoaned, eating drinking, suddenly has a new attack, but only here for this time friendship between the giants and the people came to naught, and now everyone survives as he can. In short, you will alternately play for each of the parties by their processions (Hakon leads convoy Varley and hand leads to column simple peasants), and decide on the fly all the problems. By the way, from each of your actions will depend very much, for example not after procuring food from your travelers fall spirit, or they do die of starvation, and another said the wrong word can not only inflame hatred in the unit but also deprive you of the brave warriors. So, in addition to the internecine squabbles from time to time you have to fight with the robbers and other greedy individuals, and so all fights are implemented as a turn-based strategy in the likeness of Age of Heroes, so deal with management is not particularly necessary.

To be honest, the game «The Banner Saga» looks very good, the story is interesting, and even non-linear (there are many endings), but the cons it is still there, and it is primarily the fact that the main part of the story is realized in the form of texts and tighten dialogues.
