The search for truth and light

You might have heard of Pascal’s Wager before: the game’s developer TipsWorks demoed it at Apple’s special event in September 2019, showcasing stunning visuals only made possible by the power of iPhone 11.

This action role-playing game isn’t just spectacularly detailed; add in a storyline that’s richly layered in suspense and intrigue and Pascal’s Wager is a thrilling prospect.

It’s a dark fantasy game set in a disorientatingly dim world, where a natural disaster has left a bleakly lit land in its wake.

As you navigate this eerie place in search of the truth – the villages flickering with torchlights, the swamplands filled with skulking shadows – heed a word of warning: all enemies, no matter how weak they may appear, can defeat you. And that’s before you even come up against the might of the game’s bosses.

That said, protagonists Terrence and Viola are not wholly unprepared for the dangers that await. Under your control they’ll unleash meaty attacks and perform dazzling manoeuvres to outsmart their opponents. Oh, and they’ll be killed instantly a fair few times, too.

But don’t fret. Death may be commonplace here, but characters are also resurrected immediately. Remember, every enemy has weaknesses you must identify and exploit – as long as you persevere, you’ll eventually stand over their slain bodies.

Pascal’s Wager features a plethora of impressive cutscenes, some 20 hours of main storyline and enough engaging side stories to keep you coming back for fresh adventures. Plus, there’s a rousing orchestral soundtrack to accompany you every step of the way.

This is a boldly ambitious game that masterfully combines immersive role-playing action with cinematic storytelling and emotion. Dive in now to see where it takes you.
