The Banner Saga 3
Best Indie Games of 2018 So Far
It’s very, very hard to create a satisfying trilogy that holds onto its quality over three games. Just ask Mass Effect and Dead Space how difficult being consistently amazing over a course of years can be.
Well, The Banner Saga 3 was able to pull it off. In a sea of failed Kickstarter experiments, The Banner Saga is arguably one of the most successful Kickstarted gaming projects of all time. Not only did it fulfill its original promise, it went out and delivered two more games that continued the series, and met the expectations of choice-driven, strategy RPG fans.
In our review of The Banner Saga 3, Twinfinite Senior Editor Hayes Madsen, a long-time fan of the series, praised the way the game was able to deliver a satisfying conclusion that took choices over the course of the series into account, and challenging battles that are the best the series has to offer. Kudos for pulling off a successful trilogy, and we’ll see what developers Stoic Studio decide to do with the series next.
