Mythmatch

Great chill match3 game with surprising depth, a well-written story and some sliiiight narrative parallels.

A fun match 3 with a cute story and minigames that range from fairly simple to more complex and difficult. During the day you help out a small island's villagers in matching the items they gather and bring to you to create more complex items needed to continue their stories. At night you can choose to play the minigames which get easier as you buy the upgrades available, as you get better at the games you get island benefits like longer days, higher level items harvested, etc. I had 2+ hours invested in just the demo, which thankfully carried over to the main game, so it was a must have game on release!

Wonderfull casual puzzle game!

Love the unique approach, very addictive with only negative becoming too grindy to finish in the end.

Really cool so far. Cool art, good humor, and satisfying game loop so far, where every in game day allows you to progress one or multiple objectives. Only hurdle so far? I had to search how to find the doll part (racoon eats trash). If I didn't find that info on the internet, might have been blocked a bit. Works great on the Steamdeck

10/10 I am surprised to say that, but not only is this game a cute banger with a cozy managment system, not only does it posses silly mythology references and puns from modern culture (Night mare? Turtles all the way down? Lamoomoo?), but it is the most comprehensive interactive experiences showing what modern feminism and sisterhood are. How did that happen? Beats me. But definitely a cast of very different female characters, including one that runs around throwin' blue beetles and fishbowls around, another woving wainbows and yet another ready to attack you with a pitchfork is you come too near to her beloved pigs... where was I? I mean, yeah, the character design in this game rocks. Pick it up, you'll understand how real community building (and *cough*glassceilingincorporations*cough*) feels like.

An incredibly fun and stylized matching puzzle game. Seeing the main town area be built up over the course was satisfying, and the Olympus minigames were fun as well. In terms of the story, the writing is a mixed bag. If you're a mythology nerd like me, it plays very, very loose with the Greek inspiration, something I had to stop nitpicking personally. A good amount of the main plot also leads into a theme of "patriarchy is bad" that is a bit cartoonish to the point of feeling a little insulting. Not that I disagree with the sentiment, just that it's so over the top that it feels more patronizing than anything. That said, I enjoyed the gameplay enough to stick with it, and it does tone down a bit over the course of the game; to be clear, it does not make all men bad or anything like that, for those who care about that sort of thing. I'll also say that the main town building segment is a bit stronger than the minigame Olympus segments. A few of those games are frustrating due to the controls: needing to physically move through the spaces in a timely fashion is a challenge. Though, I will note, there is an accessibility setting to slow them down in the settings, something I only noticed right as I felt satisfied with my playthrough. All that said, Mythmatch was a very fun experience that kept me stimulated and was worth its price.
