![]() With Chapter One over, the game goes into an intermission during which it tells you what happens during the subsequent 10 years of peace. The crew slays the gorgon, but not before it implants something in Courette’s ear and hints at a greater gorgon master out there. ![]() I love that Courette mocks them as they try to do this.Īnyway, the company finally gets to the center of the conflict in this area, which is a gorgon that’s turned a whole village worth of people to stone. Unfortunately, she promptly got kidnapped by some crazy villagers who tried to offer her up as a sacrifice to a “Great One,” whatever that is. Getting gear upgrades after a fight is a heady thing, and I definitely did a manly squee when Courette stumbled upon an artifact shield from a previous adventuring company. Gives them personality and keeps me going for the story alone. Bummer, I would’ve loved a monster pet.Īfter liberating a couple more zones from pests, the company returns to town and recruits a new warrior, Fala, who leaves her fields to see where the open road will take her. The company spends the night tending it, but it dies anyway. They also find a little monster, whom Courette (now sporting a shiny rapier) argues that they care for. For example, I sent greedy Geeve to pry out a gem that promptly stuck itself right into his eye socket. There are a lot of these little events, kind of choose-your-own-adventure decisions where you make choices that impact your party. It’s slick and straight-forward, which I appreciated, while also taking advantage of the layout and landscape for battle decisions. Their battles take place on a visually striking grid system where you move your party around, take actions, and then see how the enemy responds. Fire becomes fireballs, cloth can constrict windpipes, chests can explode in wooden shards, and so on.Īnyway, after a good battle, the three decide to form a company of heroes called The Bringers of the Things We Lost to go and help other regions. In Wildermyth, the magic system is pretty cool - it’s called “infusion,” which allows you to bond with an object on the playfield and then transform that into a magical attack of some sort. During the opening chapter, strange monsters started attacking settlements while Welshae discovered both a mysterious book and the ability to do magic. ![]() My first adventure began with a trio of friends: street urchin Courette (fighter), troubled Geeve (hunter), and cowardly Walshae (mystic). In fact, it’s this last part that’s the most exciting, because your party grows into veritable legends that have good and bad things happen to them, develop relationships, grow old, and establish themselves as legends that can affect future campaigns. ![]() The best way to describe Wildermyth is a game that seeks to replicate tabletop RPGs, down to the visual style (including cutouts on a grid), branching storytelling, and evolving characters. I’d simply heard too many great things about it and knew that it’d be a perfect “lunchtime game” for me. However, come this past October 1st, I already knew what I wanted: Wildermyth. So whenever the first of the month rolls around, I deliberate a whole lot on what my one purchase will be. YouTube stats: 1 new videos uploaded yesterday.My monthly entertainment budget is just enough for me to buy a single game, expansion, or season of TV.
