Action-adventure game themed on famed Iran poet work

This year March 12 marks the commemoration day of great Persian poet Nizami Ganjavi in Iran. 

In keeping with the spirit of such important literary event, you can catch a trailer for action-adventure game 'The Tale of Bistun' with a story inspired by the famous Persian tragic romance 'Khosrow and Shirin' created by Nizami Ganjavi.

The game is "a compelling tale of sacrifice and self-discovery inspired by the 12th-century poem 'Khosrow and Shirin'. The story takes place in an exotic world of Persian myth, where magic and divine influences shape all that you encounter," a description for 'The Tale of Bistun' reads. 

The video game has been developed by a group of professional Iranian designers and animators at the Netherlands-based Black Cube Games.
