At the campaign's conclusion, Torment: Tides of Numenera had set the record for highest-funded video game on Kickstarter with over US$4 million pledged. The game was successfully crowd-funded through Kickstarter in the first six hours of the project's launch in March 2013. Torment: Tides of Numenera, like its predecessor, is primarily story-driven while placing greater emphasis on interaction with the world and characters, with combat and item accumulation taking a secondary role. The game takes place in Numenera, a science fantasy campaign setting written by Monte Cook. It is a spiritual successor to 1999's Planescape: Torment. Torment: Tides of Numenera is a role-playing video game developed by inXile Entertainment and published by Techland Publishing for Microsoft Windows, MacOS, Linux, Xbox One and PlayStation 4.
