Eldermyth: New iOS Turn-Based Roguelike Strategy Game Launched

In the mystical and forgotten realm of Eldermyth, ancient magic pulses through the land, now under threat from invading colonizers. As one of the legendary guardian beasts, your mission is clear: protect the native villagers and preserve the untouched sanctity of this enchanted world. Indie developer Kieran Dennis Hartnett has crafted this immersive experience, available now on iOS, blending the thrill of high-score challenges with the depth of roguelike discovery.

Eldermyth, a turn-based strategy roguelike inspired by the innovative works of Michael Brough (known for 868-HACK and Cinco Paus), plunges you into a broughlike universe where every decision is pivotal. Your role is not just to confront the invaders head-on but to strategically utilize the land's terrain, adapt to shifting weather patterns, and harness the unique abilities of your chosen beast to outmaneuver the enemy on a procedurally generated grid.

Each beast you embody follows its own set of rules, thriving in different environments. One might flourish in the dense forest, while another gains strength under stormy skies. With five distinct terrain types, dynamic weather cycles, and four different enemy types, each with its own strategic approach, your every move is crucial. The game's core mechanics are intentionally enigmatic, encouraging players to experiment and gradually unravel the layers of strategy through repeated attempts. For those who prefer a quicker understanding, an in-game guide is available to demystify the hidden rules, ensuring the joy of optimizing your beast's potential remains fresh and engaging.

For players seeking to climb the ranks, Eldermyth offers both local and Game Center leaderboards to showcase your high scores. Additionally, for those who enjoy late-night gaming sessions, a full dark mode theme is available, providing visual comfort during your mythic battles.
