Loving all the myth stuff keep it coming
Awesome that you are doing a myth week, just after I got all my stuff from the kickstarter. Let there be gaming!
More more more.
I’m really enjoying the darkness mechanic and the way it works in game. personally I’ve not played anything like it. while it is complicated, that is also one of its strengths and the tactics of understanding and manipulating its behaviour is very fun. whether or not your actions will trigger a darkness cycle, whether you want them to or not, it creates a great depth to each round.
So many cool monsters. I love monsters. <3
Really want this game now that I have watched all the game play videos.
my second chance of making use of these awesome prizes 🙂
I really want a copy!
Awesome game. Rules are a little clunky but it’s good fun!
I’ll be spamming comments all week apparently until I win! 😉
I realy love this game , is first in my wish list !!
Loving the look of this
Nice game !
Great mechanic.
An Evil Overlord-less version of HeroQuest you say? Count me in 😀
Cool
i got to try a friends copy. I want this game!!!!!
I’ve been interested in Myth for some time, the more the better!
There’s something about the Darkness… you know it’s there and is going to turn on you no matter what! Without it it’d be just a wallk in the park.
i want to win
Interesting concept. A win would be nice
Looks like a great game to play, and maybe something to get more people into the hobby!
Now this would make a fancy Christmas present for… me. =D
It is soo cool that evry gamer is fighting against a game. Usually one player has to play as evil master mind 😛
Really wish I had backed this game on kickstarter now
…I definItely cast MAGIC MISSILE to the DARKNESS 😉
My gaming group loves the co-op of this game.
Nice job guys, thanks.
Very well explained, the darkness mechanic is what makes this game shine
I love this game
Have a kickstarter pledge waiting in my basement….need to get off my lazy butt and learn to play:)
Show me the prize 🙂
It was precisely this that made me back this game.
I’m wishing now that I had picked up the copy of Myth I ran across at a FO(ut of Town)GS** I visited last week. 🙁
**Game Goblins in Little Rock, AR is case anyone is looking.
A cross between a RPG, Wargame and Boardgame, very carefully blended mix.
It seems that i can play it solo. I like it.
Really useful compilation, I have just received a load of minis from the kickstarter, need to get painting now.
Love those monster minis, it sort of reminds me of the monster art for Wind Waker.
I love the darkness mechanic in this game, forces you to make really tough choices and make sure your tactics are sound.
That’s a nice AI mechanic for a fully co-op game
Wow, this all looks very cool
Good looking models, good mechanics. This looks like fun.
this sounds interesting. Keep up all the great work guys.
Insert comment here.
My gaming group would love this game.
Very cool mechanics, Not looked into this game yet but now you have got my interest!!!
Agree with the comments i’m sad i missed this kickstarter now i see it actually delivered unlike some
The darkness looks like a cool mechanic. I like the way the different elements contain bits of information to help you remember the rules.
Really wish I had gotten in on this KS
Looks good
Get this or hold out for the Star Wars FF Board Game next year? Maybe both… 😛
Looks like a pretty great game!
The more i look into this game the more interested i am getting
my friend would love this as they are tired of me killing them in other games
Just received my copy, sitting on my desk, at work, wanting to dive in and look at it… We do have plenty space in the meeting room, honest, it’s team building exercise! come on!!!! and maybe I can get another copy or 2 on expenses? no? team building boss! 😛
Nice!
Strong mechanics
Great game! Could really use the card sleeves, they barely fit into normal card sleeves!
Really wish I had got this from kickstarter.
It would be interesting to see this in action
Looks great
Cool game.
AI you say? the Singularity is upon us!
Have to say I always prefer the co-op against the game mechanic and not having to force someone to be overlord/dungeon master.
Innit to winnit!
Thank you for these videos. It’s nice to get a feel for the game.
Interesting game. I am loving these videos.
loving the myth coverage, can’t wait for more
darkness is a nice concept
the minis are so nice
It looks like a much more sophisticated attempt at an ai than normal, should be very interesting to tackle.
Pick me, pick me!
Love the explanation of the mechanic, seems simple when they explain it.
I couldn’t afford the kickstarter, so I’d love a chance at winning a Myth bundle!
Sounds simple and dangerous enough to be fun
I would hate to Myth out on thith opportunity to win the game!
I love the AI controls for the darkness. Nobody has to be the bad guy if they don’t want to be.
Pulling a ticket for the lottery …
Here comes the darkness…
cool that monsters can choose which target can kill. i love that monster have diffrent lvl inteligent
Myth is a great game.
I love the anticipation each monster builds up to that big boss. Roleplay to it’s core in a new a refreshing way
I want one! 🙂
Fall before the might of the darkness!
This sounds like too much fun!
Myths looking good
This looks like a wonderful game
Sigh. Stop making this game interesting. I can’t afford any more interesting.
Winning comment here?
Another great themed week, the game looks awesome! Thanks guys!
awesome stuff, this game looks like a lot of fun
Love that this can be run without a GM and everyone is on the same side
I cringe every time someone says Twilight
I haven’t played yet but this seems to be the key outstanding component to this game. I love the nature of it and the cooperative play
Commenting for greater justice o/
I love to play cooperative board games. It sounds like the soldier and the apprentice characters are the “Leroy Jenkins” of Myth.
MORE monsters please 🙂
Brilliant work on the Darkness and the mechanics behind it.
