I think they have unique climate, artwork very good as idea behind each of tiles,
You can also combine 4×6 tiles to make bigger tiles which have different legends. So flexible.
I like the variety.
Yay myth, I want a clear rat please.
Cool.
The tile system looks so cool
My gaming group would love that game.
an original take on a cooperative game, really dig the mechanics.
I’m really getting the feeling that this is the board game equivalent of the D&D Dungeon Masters Guide. It has all the rules, tips on running and balancing encounters etc and in the quests are kind of like events or random encounters that you might roll on a table (in D&D) that are there to spice up your story.. but the story itself – how many tiles do we have to explore, why are we doing this, what is our objective.. is ultimately up to the players each time they sit down to play Myth.
I kinda like that 🙂
Looks fun. Will definitely be watching all of these.
keep it coming, everyone should own this game
Looks fun, thanks guys
Loving this!
I can imagine one or two players trying to goad the others into bringing on more and more bad guys, which would be tremendous fun.
This looks interesting. Must check the rest of the series. And must win a box or three 🙂
I could see getting bored with the tiles supplied, but expansions would be nice, and it would be easy to make your own too.
I like what they have done with the tile’s, the art and the legend is so cool.
Just commenting, will be back later to actually watch the vid but I need Myth in my life 😉
The tiles are pretty nice
Looks like a very nice game so far. My wife and me will follow all the videos about it this week. In our family, coop board games are very famous. Just started last year buying the DnD boardgames and we had a lot of fun with these kind of coop mechanics.
Been playing it a few times… but there’s still something to learn!
…Plenty of options
The tiles work flawlesslym the only problem I found while playing is traps, some traps are too powerful
Looks good to me.
Love the art
Very cool game. Crossing my fingers for the loot.
Now want this on the table more!
Nice mechanic
I really want one of this!
The art and really fine lines on these tiles is really cool. Setup info is really handy to gave right on the tile as well.
Wow, variety is the name of the game!
that they thought of a mechanic to change the difficulty is just brilliant!
Insert comment here.
Neat ideas. Now I’m starting to see why you were calling the game an adventure toolbox.
Uh ho! My modellist mind is already planning a 3D-Myth-dedicated-gaming-table and I don’t even own the game yet. This game was made for me and my gaming group it seems!
Looks like fun
Those map tiles are gorgeous!
Like the variety, but will then be the option to build more separately?
Hmm could use these tiles for a lot of other games too
Sooooo cute!
The tiles are really nice. The mechanic for tile placement is pretty cool. The sandbox nature of the game also allows you to act as a GM and make what ever you want.
Entering for a chance to win. Who doesn’t need a new pile of minis?
How exactly can the archer shoot through scenery? If it can’t be seen then it can’t be hit, even if you could bend the arrows round somehow!
Looking forward to getting my first game in still
Hmmm… Odd sound on this video? Or is that just me?
Another interesting game mechanic … I better win this otherwise I will have to buy it!!
Very nice looking tilesl
The tiles look very nice and clearly the quality is there.
Gimme gimme!
Have really started to love the less “serious” theme an artstyle of Myth since I first saw it on KS.
Would love to get my hands on a copy and start (slowly) introducing my kids to these sorts of game with the lighter art style.
It looks really good
my family would love this game, great way to get some quality family time!!
bringing back all the warhammer / hero quest goodness
looks pretty fun
I really like the guiding approach rather than rules approach to the tile mechanic. Should make for great gaming sessions…
Can’t wait to see expansion tile sets and sets from 3rd parties
I couldn’t afford the kickstarter, so I’d love a chance at winning Myth bundle!
So you’re saying this is Diablo the board game? No need for a plot or an overaching questline. We can go into random dungeons with random layouts, experience random quests in search of random loot? Once you run out of pre written quests no one needs to spend months writing a campaign? And you can carry your characters and items on through all your play sessions?
I’m off to convinve my group to give this a go…
I would hate to Myth out on thith opportunity to win the game!
Was bummed I missed the Kickstarter. Looks like a great game. Would love to get one of those bundles.
Pulling a ticket for the lottery …
I can’t stop to wonder how do you get that in first runs. all the choices all the rewards. And you need to add tactics to all that.
board and icons clear, interesting graphics and of course the storyline! awesome, great job!
Myth is a great game.
The tiles look like great quality!
Roleplayer’s dream come true. The materials are amazing and the ability to adapt the scenery to your adventure effortlessly is wonderful.
I’m totally sold on this game. Hope I win a copy. My fiance looks eager to try it too, could finally introduce her to miniature gaming lol 🙂
Those tiles look so , so good.
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?
As an entire game, it looks incredibly daunting, a classic RPG poured into a boardgame. Looking at each component individually though, really shows off the simplicity and diversity of how every game component fits together in the whole.
Another great themed week, the game looks awesome! Thanks guys!
awesome stuff, this game looks like a lot of fun
great way to balance out the game.
Think I’m getting drawn in
I love how versatile theses tiles and this game are. I hate I missed out on the kickstarter.
Not sure i like the idea of choosing what level / number of monsters or packs yourself.
Commenting for greater justice o/
Would you be able to use 3D Game tiles?
I like the idea that you can populate the tile how you want, but I could see how one might set things up to be a little easy for the adventurers if the adventurers are setting up the tile. Maybe if there was a little more randomness to the deployment of the monsters.
Please let me win this bundle 😛
Brilliant board design, with the rules built in to the board itself. I’d prefer leaving the used boards on yhe table, to show the path taken.
The game looks sweet. Do want
