- Reminiscent of tabletop roleplaying, unique heroes are born in unique settings every game. They age, transform, fall in love, disagree, and make harrowing sacrifices.
- Each hero brings their own organic history and personality with them, but your choices and combat skills are what decide their paths and outcomes.
- All heroes die someday… but you get to hold on to your favorites. Reintroduce them in the next adventure, and over many lifetimes the myths you make will form your own legendary pantheon.
An Imaginative Papercraft World
The Yondering Lands, where the game is set, is a richly layered world populated with hand-painted 2D characters and scenery. We’ve paid loving attention to breaking molds and exploring new ideas: no orcs, elves, or goblins here—but watch out for the telepathic insect-dragons and the clockwork undead.
Extreme Character Depth
Each of your heroes has their own unique generated history, personality, and appearance, and will form relationships with your other heroes. All of these elements change and develop over the course of a playthrough, as characters age, encounter mysteries, and overcome challenges.
Choices That Matter
Your hero may choose to trust the enigmatic wolf god, leading to a hair-raising change in their appearance and combat abilities. Or they may pursue a romance with a fellow hero, giving each of them a shared buff and more story opportunities. Encounters and events have permanent, character-defining effects, letting you craft the arc of each character.
A New Approach to Death
Did your favorite character get one-shotted by a tentacled horror-bear? Choose to let a hero "fall back" with a maiming that will lead to some transformative new paths in their legend, or let them go out in a blaze of glory to be remembered for generations to come.
Deep and Creative Tactical Combat
Combat in Wildermyth emphasizes teamwork and careful positioning, as well as imaginative use of your evolving capabilities and surroundings. Walling and Flanking mechanics provide clear but conflicting incentives, while mystical interfusion lets you remake the battlefield with explosive magic. Multiple difficulty levels mean you can get as intense as you want to.
Cooperative Multiplayer
In a multiplayer game, you and your friends can each customize and control your own heroes as you play through a campaign. Recommended for up to five players—though in a typical campaign, you start with three heroes and pick up the fourth and fifth along the way. We also support Steam Remote Play.
Endless Replayability
Pick and choose from a huge bank of combat abilities as your heroes level up in each playthrough, and decide whether you prefer offensive or defensive tactics, brute strength, stealth, or magically flinging fire from a nearby lamp into your enemies' faces. Procedural generation gives you new heroes, new enemies, new story events, and new maps every time you play.
A Custom Pantheon of Legends
You’ll have the freedom to customize hero appearances, names, histories, and more. As time passes, heroes grow old and may retire, or else might fall in combat—and yes, some will survive all the way to the end. You can add your favorite heroes to a roster of legends and call on them again in later playthroughs. Build your own mythologies and share the awe-inspiring might of your heroes with others.

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Plays like a TableTop RolePlaying Game, complete with a DM narrating your encounters and escapades between battles mixed with grid-based combat. Characters from past campaigns can make appearances in future ones with some of their abilities or you can start with a fresh cast each time. You can have up to 5 player coop but from experimentation with TTRPG focused friends 3 people seems to be the practical limit. With more than 3 player turns slow to a crawl while everyone discusses and agrees on actions, though with more casual players you might be able to go to 5 without taking too long. Overall a highly enjoyable and replayable game your TTRPG nerd friends will enjoy
Fun storytelling game, which improves substantially when you name your party members after people you know/watch. Around 4 campaigns will probably show you most of the stuff it has to offer when it comes to variety of events and builds. Can't "Not recommend" and might come back to it in the future/
This is a game about controlling a party of adventurers through semi-randomly generated adventures. On a mechanical standpoint, the game is great, really fun to play, and does a great job of encouraging you to dabble in many different ways to build your characters. As a storytelling tool, it really only works if you're willing to immerse yourself in the story you are experiencing and if you're willing to explore the choices you can make. Many times you can choose things that are clearly terrible ideas with bad consequences. It's up to you to shape that part of the story and see where that leads.
glorius
I don't get why the story stuff is so hyped. It's very uninteresting. Wish there was a way to play without it, since the combat and build stuff is actually great! Simple but highly random. Forces you to improvise.
I didn’t expect Wildermyth to hook me the way it did. The art style leans more toward storybook charm than high-detail realism (I usually gravitate toward something like Baldur’s Gate 3), but it completely won me over once I got into it. What really stands out is how personal the storytelling feels. Your characters don’t just level up, they change. Choices shape their personalities, relationships, and even their physical forms in ways that feel meaningful rather than cosmetic. The interactions between characters, and between characters and the world, create these emergent little narrative moments that feel uniquely yours. The legacy system is the real magic, though. Taking a favorite hero from one campaign into the next—and watching their story continue to evolve over time - adds a sense of continuity and attachment that most RPGs never quite achieve. If you enjoy character-driven stories, meaningful choices, and a bit of procedural storytelling magic, Wildermyth is an easy recommendation.
