About Myrmidon

✦ AI summary

Myrmidon is a co-op puzzle-platformer where one player manipulates physical sets as an animator while the other navigates the imaginary worlds those sets inspire as a puppet, requiring constant communication and synchronized teamwork to overcome obstacles. The game's stop-motion aesthetic and dual-perspective gameplay—where you're either pulling strings behind the scenes or performing death-defying acrobatics on stage—creates a uniquely collaborative experience that hinges entirely on trust between partners.

Invite a friend online and embark on a puzzle-platformer adventure exploring the bond between an animator and his puppet. Work together to clear obstacles across the sprawling sets of a stop-motion animation workshop and find out to what lengths the power of imagination can take you.

✦ AI summary

Myrmidon has an interesting cooperative concept at its core, but players report it is severely hampered by technical issues including frequent disconnections, crashes, black screen bugs, and performance problems that make it frustrating to play. Additional complaints center on poor keyboard support despite mapping existing in the game, and players note the game appears abandoned with no recent patches, suggesting it was released in an unfinished state. Most reviewers recommend passing on this one unless you are willing to tolerate significant technical headaches.

The core concept and the beginning of the game are interesting, but bugs and lags heavily ruin the gameplay. We got disconnected several times. We managed to finish the game, but it was a total pain. After 30 minutes, you just want to quit and never open it again. I wish the developer released more patch fixes and brought the game to a finished state. But as I can see, the last patch was back in 2025... It's a shame it was abandoned, it could have been a good game! My bottom line: better pass on this one unless you want to swear at the game and waste your nerves

Was not able to play this with my friend due to a bug that I now know is a common occurence. I was able to start the game as the puppet but my friend just got a black screen as the animator so we're sadly inable to play. We also tried to switch roles to see if it would work from my side if there was a problem on my friends side but that was not the case. We tried multiple times but the game also crashed on us a few times while trying. Looked like a really fun game but sadly we we're not able to get it started.

You all need to stop with the controler obsession.... For god sake, we can't launch the game because we don't play with controller even tough keyboard is maped in the game ! Why do you give a ♥♥♥♥ if i play with a keyboard ? I play as i want. So after 30 min trying to make the game work without having a locked screen asking for us to play with a controller, we're abandoning this game. Sad, it was a good proposition as one of the rare distance coop free game.... (You realy need to stop this controller sectarism)

Games like Dying Light are easy to find if you only want parkour or only want zombies. These eight keep the part that matters: a city that becomes a different place after dark.

Games like Portal 2, where one idea carries the whole game

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.

Games like Frostpunk for anyone who misses the Book of Laws more than the cold: the sequel's factions, a besieged house, beaver droughts, a drifting ark and the template it came from.
