Pyre is a game that seems inspirational for those who feel like a wanderer, cast out, and interested in sports. But the themes and setting just didn't resonate with me. A desolate desert of distress, writing that keeps dialogue dense to drip-feed the characters and plot, and a combative basketball that culled my concern.

Again, probably a marvelous game, for others. But I like lush environments, boisterous characters, and decisions that quickly lead to the game's denouement.
