Mythmon: Mythic Monsters

Mythmon: Mythic Monsters is a hack-and-slash strategy game in which the player takes the role of a commander assembling a party of creatures known as Mythmon to fight the Demon King’s army. Battles play out automatically once they begin, so the emphasis is on preparation: choosing which Mythmon to field, what equipment to give them and how to arrange them before combat starts.

There are 30 Mythmon to recruit and more than 140 pieces of equipment to assign. Each Mythmon has its own characteristics, and as they level up the player selects new traits for them to learn. A party can hold up to five members, each placed in one of three roles: frontliners, midliners or backliners. More than ten status effects are included, and the game encourages experimenting with equipment, traits and formations to find combinations that work together.

Battles carry a wager on equipment. Winning a fight takes the weapon the enemy was carrying and adds it to the player’s party, while losing means one of the player’s own weapons is taken by the Demon King’s army, strengthening the enemy. Players can choose to keep attacking or retreat between encounters. The developer has also published guidelines permitting players to post and stream their own gameplay footage, subject to conditions such as not extracting individual game assets or using footage for commercial purposes beyond platform monetisation.
