Thanks to a recent Steam sale, I picked up Bastion by Supergiant Games. I finished this lovely isometic-perspective action game in 10 hours. What surprised me the most about the game was how much fun each and every weapon is to use. Each weapon has benefits and drawbacks that balances well against the other weapons. This makes picking weapons more about style and preference rather than the best numbers. I'm sure there's a winning formula for the game's extra hard challenges, but at the regular difficulty all the weapons have their uses. The art is pretty and colorful and the music is great.

The new game plus mode is an attractive feature, and I can definitely see myself revisiting the Bastion in the future if only to fully upgrade all the weapons.
