The word choices, the scenes, the writing, feel like you are reading a captivating storybook. Most of the writing has this flair that reminds me of an American children’s book. There’s lore and weird terms and languages in the world of Wildermyth, but isn’t overly indulge itself with its own jargon. It’s fantasy, but not high-fantasy with people speaking hoity-toity medieval speak. The soundtrack is intimate, cosy, and perfect for its scale.Īnd I also like its distinct flavour of writing.

(But there are stylistic choices of fonts which are done well, I’m more a bit annoyed at how barebones the UI can feel at times). The options and menu buttons are basic, the font choices for the UI are of a practical choice rather than stylistic. Wildermyth is an indie game that was first released on Steam Early Access, and remnants of it being a work-in-progress can, unfortunately, be seen here and there.

Wildermyth, this little new indie title by Worldwalker Games, may have just encapsulated the magical moments from tabletop role-playing, into a tactical RPG. But more particularly, the stories and events the players themselves influence and add on top of whatever the game master sets up in the campaign.
