The Tale of Bistun is a story-driven action-adventure game inspired by the 12th Century tragic poem “Khosrow and Shirin.” You play as a stone carver who wakes on Mount Bistun with no memory of anything before that moment. An insidious blight has spread, bringing forth many dangerous foes. You must battle through varied enemies and travel between the real world and an ethereal place of forgotten memories to discover the secret of your past.StoryOn the craggy slopes of Mount Bistun, a stone carver awakens with no memory of who he is nor how he came to be there. He soon discovers that a blight is squeezing the life out of nature, tainting the local wildlife and turning it hostile. Encouraged by a strange, pleading whisper, the man journeys between the real world and the mysterious place of forgotten memories, known as the Revelations Realm, in search of answers. But a colossal ancient evil is watching, waiting, and is not best pleased that its plans are being disrupted . . . All the while, an omniscient narrator recounts the man’s every step and details his innermost thoughts. But who is he? And how does he know so much about the befuddled stone carver? Omniscient narratorThe Tale of Bistun is told through an omniscient narrator, who recounts the stone carver’s steps and innermost thoughts. But just how reliable is this narrator? And does he, perhaps, have an agenda of his own? Fast-paced combatEngage in fast-paced, tactical melee combat against a variety of wicked foes based on Persian mythology. If you’re in danger of being overwhelmed, unleash a devastating special ability to clear your path.

- Players drawn to Persian mythology and tragic romance who want a game inspired by the poem “Khosrow and Shirin,” rather than a familiar fantasy setting.
- Players who prefer a guided, mostly linear adventure with narration, exploration, and occasional combat instead of a large world full of detours.
- Players who want accessible action between story sections, with straightforward melee attacks, a dodge, and magical abilities rather than a complex combat system.
