If you played Bastion or Transistor, then you know the impeccable pedigree of Supergiant Games, which means you probably ought to go ahead and grab Pyre, the studio’s latest creation. It’s a roleplayin­g game that puts you in control of a group of exiles, who must battle in specialize­d rituals to try and reclaim their glory. From there, Pyre seems unique. The battles play out like a combatcent­ric team sport, almost like a tweak on football, and if you lose, there’s no restarting the match. Instead, the story branches and their journey continues beyond that disappoint­ment. Pair in the kind of dazzling presentati­on we expect from the studio, and Pyre looks like another winner.
