I really feel like I’ve performed numerous match-3 video games in my time. As somebody who typically performs video games on my telephone, there are only a lot of these sorts of video games on the market. Once I heard that this sport was a mixture of match-3, journey, and mythology, I wasn’t ready for a way good the entire thing would really feel because it introduced these components collectively.

Mythmatch is a sport based mostly on Greek mythology with some comedian book-style artwork to inform tales between the assorted ranges. These tales observe an anti-capitalism theme, with the primary hero standing up in opposition to the gods of Olympus. Within the little demo that I performed at Develop: Brightonmy character was searching for a job, and being instructed that they couldn’t have particular jobs as a result of, seemingly, they have been a Goddess, not a God.

Within the precise gameplay, you can find your self grabbing objects and throwing them collectively, typically utilizing your bow and arrow to seize stuff that’s throughout larger gaps. Typically, these ranges have one thing producing among the objects you’ll be able to match up and creatures shifting round, which may make it harder to make your matches. The motion, nonetheless, feels actually incredible as you play.

Crafting new creatures or supplies in Mythmatch is the way you progress the story and discover new locations to discover. I discovered it each difficult and enjoyable that extra objects have been showing on-screen and shifting round. Typically, I wanted to strive actually laborious to get the objects to match up simply resulting from all of the motion.

Match-3 video games typically all really feel the identical, however there’s something enjoyable and distinctive about Mythmatch so I’ll be holding my eye out for the total sport!

Mythmatch is at present in growth, however within the meantime you’ll be able to seize a demo and add it to your wishlist on Steam.
