Bastion Review

Bastion is a action game where you use various weapons in order to obtain items throughout the levels. The story of this game is your character is a survivor of an disaster called the calamity which broke his world to pieces and now you work with a old man called Rucks to get cores that power a device called Bastion which can supposedly rebuild the world. One of the best parts of this game is the narrator, Rucks. His voice is a constant throughout the game and he explains levels, tells the story, and sets the overall tone of the game. Another great thing about this game is the music, which energizes battles and is just really awesome. Using cores in the Bastion allows you to upgrade your home base with various structures that perform different tasks, like upgrading your weapons. This game can be challenging at times but I never felt that it was unfair. I also suggest you play this game with headphones on, so you won't miss anything. I give this game 4.75 our 5 stars.    By Nick Starceski. reviewed for iPhone/iPad
