    Playing something like this makes me mad that the new Masters of the Universe cartoon turned out the way it did.

Rogue-lite mechanics are on point, the difficultly feels like it's right where it needs to be. Combine that with the amazing sound track and voice-overs you've got a very solid game especially since this is from the veterans behind the Baulder's Gate series.… Expand

    Great game so far! The graphics obviously stand out and it's so nice and welcome. But other than that the game is actually quite fun. There is a clear feeling of progression, it's always fun to get new weapons and I can't wait to see how else they will improve it.

    The nostalgia factor is built into this game with surgical precision, whether you were a fan of the old cartoons or not. The game has a beautiful "retro" feel to the graphics, but does so without sacrificing smooth gameplay or intuitive, satisfying controls.

The game has a beautiful "retro" feel to the graphics, but does so without sacrificing smooth gameplay or intuitive, satisfying controls. Nothing feels clunky or awkward, its fast paced enough that it never feels like there are missed inputs, but the pace is controlled to deliver a satisfying experience. The visuals blend "cartoon" castles and weapons with lovely scenic vistas that just feel amazing. Every little part of the game tangibly and noticeably adds depth and immersion, from the voice acting/sound design, to the map generation, to the difficulty scaling, to the character models. I thoroughly enjoyed playing in a group with friends, it was delightfully chaotic while still cohesive, and the single player still allows every class to be fun on its own, and feel rewarding and powerful. Really looking forward to what comes next for this game, the initial foundation is outstanding.… Expand

    Radical graphics aside, this game is insanely fun if you dig roguelike games. It makes me feel like I'm a kid playing Gauntlet, but the Roguelike nature actually keeps me invested. I love it alone, but I'll admit, this is definitely even better with friends!

    Seriously fun to hop in with a friend or two (or three).
    Really makes me feel like I'm playing a first person Gauntlet Legends.
    Mob variety is great and I'm sure we'll see even more of it as they add new areas to the game. The talent they brought in for the voice overs feels AAA (Beastor is an absolute hunk). Graphics are nice and punchy. The effects currently in game look fantastic    Seriously fun to hop in with a friend or two (or three).

    MythForce is a great cooperative action experience for gamers who are nostalgic for Saturday morning cartoons and their limited fantasy universes. The overall narrative isn’t very engaging and filled with tropes. The four heroes each come complete with a unique approach to combat and their various abilities create some cool combo moments if players actually work together. The biggest issue is how quickly fun disappears when players take on a dungeon on their own. Characters gain power slowly and moving through the same spaces, battling the same enemies starts to become repetitive. Mythforce will deliver fun moments for players who have a good multiplayer group and like the presentation.

    MythForce is a fun first-person roguelike game that doesn’t do anything new to make it stand apart from other titles like it, but the multiplayer mode is an entertaining experience.

    MythForce is an entertaining action and role-playing roguelite, which stands out for its 80's cartoon aesthetics and for being very oriented to 4 player coop. It has many "evils" of the subgenre (random level generation, repetition...), but if you're going to play it with friends, you'll have a great time. In solitaire, maybe not so much.
