Bastion vs Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons
Bastion
Bastion is a very unique action RPG that is so different from any other RPGs you might have played before mainly because the game provides you with your very own personal narrator who will reactively narrate your every move and action, resulting in a deeper and much more personal story to be crafted as you progress in your adventure. The brilliant hand-painted graphics and the melodious soundtrack in this game is astounding too, allowing you to be fully immersed in the bright and cheery-looking world despite being shattered into pieces by an almost apocalyptic event called the Calamity.The gameplay in Bastion is most definitely not the hack-and-slash sort. Instead, the game rewards you for approaching your battles with finesse rather than recklessness. To make your character stronger and able to take on tougher enemies, there are plenty of weapons you can loot and upgrade as well. Best yet, you can even discover up to 6 different Bastion structures and that the game has plenty of varied game modes for you to enjoy.
Bastion is an RPG very unlike any other we, and possibly you, have ever experienced before. The game has a really fascinating way of approaching its storytelling aspect and that alone is enough to make the game a must-buy for many players. But if the storyline isn't something you emphasize on, then you might want to grab the game for its gameplay instead.
Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons
Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons is a heartwarming puzzle-adventure game that details the perilous journey of two brothers who are on a quest to find and bring back the "Water of Life" to their ailing father. Aside from being incredibly tear-jerking, especially for players who have brothers whom they deeply love, the game also features a unique cooperative gameplay in a single player format that will require you to control both brothers, usually at the same time, to solve a puzzle... though at times, you may need to separate the brothers so that they can both proceed to the next part of the story. The story in this game is also not shown through a wall of text or dialogue but instead, the emotions and are poignantly displayed through the actions of the characters and the visualization of their thoughts such as the part where they saw their dead mother.With gorgeous graphics, melodious music, a stunning world, and quirky characters, Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons single-handedly proved that games can be an art-form. If you're ready for an adventure that will leave you sad enough to shed at least a tear, this is the game you need. You can get the game on Steam or on the mobile platforms, Android and iOS.
