Après avoir fait le bonheur de centaines de milliers de joueurs sur XBLA, PC, Mac et Linux, voici donc la version iPad de l’excellent Bastion qui arrive à petit prix. Il sera disponible au prix de 4.99$ ce qui est fort raisonnable si on le compare au prix de The World Ends With You: Solo Remix par exemple.
Reste à voir la jouabilité mais j’ai peu de doutes après avoir joué à d’autres jeux du genre, il y a largement matière à faire une excellente version parfaitement adaptée à l’iPad. Il n’y a plus qu’a espérer que le Retina Display soit géré mais je vous en reparlerais demain après l’avoir acheté et testé.
En attendant voici donc les spécifications de cette version:
