The Tale of Bistun

The Tale of Bistun centers on a stone-carver with no memory, making his way up the formidable heights of Mount Bistun. He must cut down hordes of monstrous enemies with quick melee strikes and potent magic, crossing between the waking world and a strange realm of lost memory called the Revelations Realm in search of answers.

All the while, a mysterious voice keeps urging him on, narrating each move he makes and watching his progress through this lovely but blight-ridden country. The game reworks the Persian legend of Khosrow and Shirin, a romantic epic poem dating back to the 1100s, into a story of love, of loss and of adventure, in a land where magic and bravery collide.

You climb the lethal slopes and cut a path through a stunning world that conjures ancient Mesopotamia back into being, hacking and blasting through hordes with tactical melee and fierce magic. You can also carve out your own tale, cutting your own engravings, after the fashion of the Behistun Inscription, to set down your story for the world.
