Mythic is a new MMORPG on Steam that incorporates roguelike elements and allows you to explore endless labyrinths in pixel graphics. Starting from September 29, 2022, you can play it in Early Access.
The developers of the MMORPG are Abyssal Studios LLC, a studio consisting of only 2 people. They promise a unique connection between MMORPG and roguelite. They aim to take and combine their favorite elements from both genres.
Explore endless labyrinths and improve your character
What kind of game is this? In Mythic, you are exploring dungeons along with hundreds of other players. These are procedurally generated elements that extend infinitely and offer you various biomes: water, air, earth, fire, and order.
According to the different biomes, you have 5 different skill trees to level up your character.
Here’s the Steam page for Mythic.
This content is provided by Mythic:
- New puzzles, bosses, and treasures in every room. In Tibia, players solved a puzzle only after 5 years.
- 70 different items that you can find. They have different levels, and some are rarer than others.
- Through crafting, you can further customize your items.
- Explore the labyrinth alone or in a group.
- Whoever discovers new parts of the world first receives a reward.
- Mini-games where you earn points to obtain equipment.
- Retro graphics with pixel art.
However, those who die do not lose all items, as it is the case in many roguelikes. While the developers promise you many deaths, there is no permadeath. If you complete a biome and unlock abilities, you can still use them despite dying.
However, if you die within a biome, you return to the start and lose what you had just earned.
Mythic is suitable for you if…
- you are a fan of roguelikes
- you are not deterred by the pixel graphics
- you want to experience a roguelike with many other players
- you are not too frustrated if you die frequently in a biome and have to start over
What do you think about Mythic? Have you long wanted a mix of roguelike and MMORPG and are now looking forward to playing it next week? Or is the retro graphics rather an off-putting aspect of the game? Do you enjoy puzzles and labyrinths? Feel free to let us know in the comments here on MeinMMO!
