You’re the latest creation of The Changing God, a being that has cheated death by learning how to transfer his consciousness into other bodies. You take the role of the Last Castoff, starting the game in freefall whilst trying to come to terms with what is happening. It even shares Pillars’ engine, offering some great visuals to go along with some thought-provoking writing. The game itself marks a continuation of the recent resurgence in party-based RPGs, coming as it does after the well received Tyranny and Pillars of Eternity. The numenera of the title being the remnants of those who came before. Everything in the world is built on and scavenged from the detritus of countless prior long-gone civilisations, with the lack of knowledge and understanding that comes with that. Torment: Tides of Numenera takes place in a setting known as the Ninth World, a billion years in the future, where everything is all a little alien and unfamiliar. InXile’s spiritual successor to the classic RPG Planescape: Torment takes you on a journey through a weird, strange land full of interesting characters, peculiar technology and an exploration of consciousness and the self.
