About The Astonishing Game
The Astonishing Game is a turn-based tactical board game that retells Dream Theater’s rock opera The Astonishing. You play through the conflict from the perspectives of both the Ravenskill Rebel Militia and the Great Northern Empire of the Americas, competing for influence and control over the will of the people. The full story unfolds only after you complete the game from both sides.
Campaign and matches
The game includes a single-player campaign and player-versus-player matches on the same device. Its board-based battles are a non-violent metaphor: pieces contest game sectors and force opponents to give up power and influence rather than fighting to the death.
Story and presentation
The interactive narrative adds a new level to The Astonishing’s story, carrying the struggle to locations across The Great Northern Empire. It uses video artwork shown exclusively during Dream Theater’s The Astonishing world tour and features instrumental sections from the band’s double album.
Competitions
You can optionally enter in-game competitions for Dream Theater prizes during the band’s tours. Prizes include signed albums, tickets and post-concert passes, and entering requires in-game registration.
