cool game

no seriously, I played the original on the PS4 and enjoyed it, and the royal version fixed 95% of my problems with the original. very fun slice of life simulator with extremely satisfying turn based combat. you either glide through combat chaining technicals / weaknesses / crits together to kill em dead in 10 seconds flat, or you're in a real pickle where you have to slow down and focus on buffs/recovery so you don't get wiped. The game can be pretty easy on hard difficulties but doesn't feel boring to engage with regardless. I wish I could experience the story from scratch again, sadly it is too memorable, so the twists/surprises didn't land as well, but experiencing the new royal content was a blast and those same rug-pulls I had in the original where definitely present. Good game and very much worth the money!

A brilliant game.
Not much can be said about the story without spoiling aspects of it. However supergiant has exceeded at making characters you care for, and leaves you with bittersweet feelings about the liberation of your friends.
The gameplay is tight and responsive. Landing a blow on your opposing pyre feels brilliant after pulling off skillful casts and evasions. The controls are responsive and smooth, leaving the combat feeling extremely polished.
The music is one of Darren Korb's best works so far, blending in the perfect amount of Bastion and Transistors styles together, giving you a soundtrack you will diffidently listen to after completing the game.
If you are a fan of Bastion and Transistor, you most likely have this game already. However if you haven't, seriously consider giving Pyre a look.

Extremely fun game-play with stellar music. I highly recommend purchasing this if you enjoy a proper challenge.

A strong, emotional game that has you befriending your foes.
I love this game.
