This can include picking the names of characters you find on your travels, what to do in your downtime, and what path to take. Your fellow exiles treat you as a leader, wise and knowledgeable, and as you progress through the story, you’ll have to make many decisions that will bring you closer to freedom. You’ve all been exiled from the Commonwealth (for reasons you aren’t too sure of at first), but you, the player, are different – you are the Reader. The story sees you and a group of diverse characters traverse the strange land of Downside, fighting for your freedom in a number of ceremonies called Rites. It’s a combination of many different styles and ideas, but they all work really well together, and if you aren’t hooked within the first thirty minutes, that probably isn’t going to change. I wouldn’t say it’s niche, but Pyre knows what it is, and won’t appeal to everyone.
It’s quite a gift, and Supergiant Games’ talent is present in every single second of it. Pyre is game number three for the team, and in short, they have once again created something special. You’ll also know how different the concepts of both games are, but how they both manage to exceed expectations without falling victim to their own ambition. If you’ve ever played Bastion or Transistor by Supergiant Games, you’ll know just how fantastic the calibre of adventure can be, and how utterly breathtaking both the visuals and music are.
