Think about your old 8-bit and 16-bit hockey or basketball titles, and then imagine how that would play out today. The actual combat side of Pyre is more akin to an old-school, arcade style sports game. The world building done in Pyre is absolutely phenomenal for an original, non-franchise type of release, so much so that it sort of puts to shame other long-running, well-established RPG releases from earlier in the year.īut Pyre certainly doesn?t stop there. And there?s a whole lot of text to read through, which is thankfully well-written throughout. You can also purchase or find talismans to equip, that will further enhance those characters.
These characters will level up over time, gaining access to unique skills as you play. You?ll have a party of unique characters, culled from different races like humans, demons, bird-people, sea creatures, etc. So what is Pyre? It?s difficult to directly compare the game to anything else. And I don?t think I?m overselling it one bit, I definitely believe that Pyre will be pretty high up on most folks top ten list come the end of 2017. Its strengths are many, and quite frankly, I?m having a hard time mustering up any particular shortcomings with this one. It?s easily one of the best titles I?ve played so far this year, and certainly one of the most original. Developer Supergiant Games does it again with this week?s release of Pyre, a stand out RPG/Arcade sports mix of a game from the folks that brought you Bastion and Transistor.
