This game is perfect for: casual gamers

Bastion is a beautiful game, in all respects of the word. The graphics seem child-like and kiddy, but it's clear this game is meant for adults. The themes in it are dark, but subtle enough that your average child won't catch them. There's no great challenge in beating the game, though some of the self-imposed challenges available to you can be worthwhile; nor is there a lot of repeatability to the game. You have a few potential options at the end of the game, and playing through four times (the game can be beaten in a few hours) is enough to get literally every ending you can get in the game. The narration is beyond superb, and the music will stay with you for the rest of your life. It perfectly conveys the themes of the game, changing throughout, and as you begin to understand more nuances to the plot, you see more and more of the meaning behind the songs. If you get a chance, download the soundtrack as well! You won't regret it at all, trust me. The graphics are HIGHLY stylized, and are again perfectly tailored to what the game is meant to be. In addition, the art suffusing the entire game through "cutscenes" and the like is just amazing. Now, I'd like to say all these are just superfluous minutiae next to the truly amazing feature, the plot. But I'd be lying. The plot is woven seamlessly into the music, into the loneliness of the art, the tired desperation in the narrator's voice, and into the gameplay. Everything is so beautifully integrated that this is no longer, in my opinion, simply a game: it is art. And yet it has lost none of its playability, in that if you approach it as a video game (just as children will), you will still come away from it having enjoyed your experience. In closing, you cannot go wrong with Bastion.
