The Banner Saga is as bleak as it is beautiful. The sun hangs motionless in the sky, serpents the size of the San Andreas Fault topple mountains as though they were building blocks,
and likable characters fall dead mere minutes after I'd decided I liked them. The upright perish, the brutal linger, and smiles number only slightly more than microbes on Mars.
It's the kind of approach that could make Game of Thrones seem like slapstick comedy, and the bleakness doesn't even relent when you hunker down into the punishing tactical combat.
There's precedence for this kind of gloom, of course.
The oldest of us remember it from The Oregon Trail, and developer Stoic Studio captures the spirit of MECC's classic via the sight of bands of Nordic folk scrolling across a frigid 2D fantasy Vikingscape that pelts you with hard choices about supplies and morale.
But there's no smirking about oxen dying here; The Banner Saga made me care.
One of its great strengths is the quality of the writing surrounding the story, which starts out in the middle of things in the tradition of the best epics.
