BNR: I’m not disappointed with Toren, but I feel that it was the end of a much bigger game that doesn’t exist- it didn’t feel like the video game equivalent of a novelette; it was more akin to the final chapter and epilogue of an epic novel. Toren is imperfect, and though it has flashes of brilliance, it’s not a game I can strongly recommend.
Indie Brazilian game developer Swordtales' adventure game, Toren, is now available on Mac.
The PlayStation 4 has plenty more years in it yet, but one of its most compelling selling points has been the robust support the console has enjoyed from independent developers.
"Toren from the get go looks like a close cousin of ICO that has been brought to the PS4. If you have watched any trailers then the art style and feel of the game instantly brings back nostalgic plays of ICO and makes you want to jump into a new world of beautiful art and intrigue all over again." Says Glitch Free Gaming.
