Combat within Wildermyth follows the formula of turn-based combat across a grid-base map you can move across. Some of my characters had interesting dialogue moments or interactions with each-other that seemed a tiny bit out of place, but nothing that negatively impacted my experience. I was looking out for the odd quirk of obscurity that comes with most procedural generations, but during my experience, i couldn’t find anything that seemed too far out of place.
It’s one of the most unique RPG’s I’ve ever got my hands on, and really blew me away with how well a story could be constructed from procedural generation. The actual story-telling within Wildermyth is another aspect that needs to shown some serious praise – as it’s (from my experience) second-to-none and arguably the greatest aspect of the game.
It looks and feels exactly how any children’s film would visually present their retelling of a fantasy story, and I can’t quite place my finger on what nostalgic nerve this hits, but it certainly hits one.Īll of this is further complimented by the score and soundtrack presented throughout, which match this ‘storybook adventure’ theme that’s heavily reinforced throughout everything the game throws at you. One aspect of the game Worldwalker Games did an extraordinary job with, would be in regards to visual design and art style direction, which really captivated me. Combat is presented in the form of turn-based content, across randomized grid-based maps (similar presentation to something like Xcom with Wildermyth‘s unique artistic take on it all). It’s a system built upon allowing you to create your own story, which ties in perfectly with the story-book theme showcased throughout.
Across multiple chapters of your story, you’ll explore and fight your way across a strategic map as you rid the lands of monsters and bandits, while all-the-while establishing bases of operations to fortify for impending assaults, or finding cultural sites to restore.Įvery action you take or dialogue you engage in take matters and every side-quest you complete can impact the game world (or your characters). Gameplay within Wildermyth follows a series of micro-stories which shape the narrative direction of your characters and act as justification for fights that ensue. The strategic map of Wildermyth is ever-changing, and is used to plot your journey for your upcoming adventures and battles
