In case you missed it, publisher of inclusive, accessible, low-stress games, Whitethorn Games, and the developer behind the BAFTA Award-nominated Röki, Polygon Treehouse, recently announced that the upcoming “friend-em-up” adventure Mythwrecked: Ambrosia Island will join this year’s LudoNarraCon digital event! During the event, you’ll be able to visit the Mythwrecked Steam page to play the first public demo of Mythwrecked, where you’ll uncover the mysteries surrounding the island and befriend its godly inhabitants!
LudoNarraCon, a digital festival celebrating independent narrative games, runs from May 4 through May 8. Visit the official website for more information about the event.
In Mythwrecked, players take on the role of backpacker Alex, who has found herself stranded on the gorgeous shores of Ambrosia Island. As she begins to explore her surroundings, she discovers that she is not alone – the gods of Greek myth and legend populate the island! However, something is amiss – the gods are unable to remember who they are. In order to find her way home, she must befriend the inhabitants and help them to restore their memories.
Explore the dynamic island in this non-linear adventure and unravel its story to discover its celestial guests and build friendships with the gods through a unique relationship mechanic. The closer you become, the more they are willing to help Alex with their godly powers. Solve the mystery of Ambrosia Island, save the gods, and hopefully help Alex find a way back home!
Key Features of Mythwrecked: Ambrosia Island include:
- Gods Among Us: Many Gods call Ambrosia Island home, from Ares to Athena, Hermes to Hades. Tracking them all down is made easier with the Ambrosidex, though some may be harder to meet than others.
- Treasure in the Sandbox: Use the radar signal on the Ambrosidex to hunt for lost godly treasures hidden all over the island! Return them to their rightful owners and help rekindle their memories and learn more about the island’s fate.
- Conversational Wizard: Explore the island, examine new objects and locations, and talk to others to unlock new conversation topics. Maybe some Gods know something that will help Alex on her adventure, but some sensitive topics may be off-limits until you have earned their friendship.
- Greek Legend: Experience a non-linear, emotional story about the importance of friendship, family, and community.
Mythwrecked: Ambrosia Island will launch on PC via Steam.
