The Banner Saga

As included on my list of favorite games of the year, The Banner Saga is indeed a fantastic game, but I’m especially happy to be playing it now on iPad. As much as I loved it before, I make no secret of the fact that I don’t really like playing games on my laptop, and so it didn’t get as much of my attention as it deserved. Playing it on iPad is a joy, and although it’s not as smooth as could be on my aging iPad 3, it’s definitely still playable.

The Banner Saga

I was a backer of this, so got my copy last week, but only got around to playing it tonight. Wow, what a great game. It of course looks gorgeous – even better then I thought it would – but I’m also really digging the turn-based battles. I’ve only played about an hour and a half so far, but I can already see how it’s going to be interesting to find the right balance of characters and positioning on the battlefield. The story so far is pretty good too, and well told. It really is a fantastic time to be playing games these days.
