Compare Bard to the Future prices across trusted key stores and find the best deal. Developed by Battlebard Games. Released on 2/27/2015. Available on PC. Genres: Action, Adventure, Indie.

A time-warped platformer where a medieval bard fights a cyborg pirate, weird premise, short runtime, niche appeal.

I've got a soft spot for indie platformers that swing for the fences with their concepts, and Bard to the Future commits fully to its absurdist setup: a lute-wielding adventurer stumbles into a time machine, recruits two LARPers, and chases down a time-hopping robot buccaneer across eras. It's a side-scroller with a clear creative voice and a setting you won't find in AAA games. The catch is that this 2015 release is rough around the edges, and the novelty carries it only so far. Expect a short experience built more around charm and weirdness than mechanical depth. If you're hunting for tight platforming or a meaty campaign, look elsewhere. But if you want something genuinely offbeat and don't mind loose execution in service of the bit, this scratches that itch. Alex, Scout Team

Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.

Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.

We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.
