Whitethorn Games and Polygon Treehouse are all set to whisk players away to a mesmerizing new realm with Mythwrecked: Ambrosia Island, a narrative adventure game that entwines Greek mythology with captivating storytelling. Mark your calendars for December 5th, when this enthralling game will make its debut on Windows PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and the Nintendo Switch.
Alex Kanaris-Sotiriou, the Creative Director and Lead Developer at Polygon Treehouse, expressed heartfelt sentiments about the project, stating, “Mythwrecked is a game that’s close to our hearts. We’ve poured a lot of ourselves into it, knitting it together with the essence of our previous work, Röki. It’s thrilling to finally invite players to explore the vibrant shores of Ambrosia Island.”
Mythwrecked: Ambrosia Island casts players as Alex, a backpacker who inadvertently finds herself stranded. However, she’s not alone; the island is mysteriously inhabited by gods of Greek myth, who have inexplicably lost their memories. To find her way back home, Alex must forge bonds with these divine beings and help restore their memories.
The game offers a non-linear exploration experience, drawing inspiration from beloved titles like the Ace Attorney series and A Short Hike. As players dive into the island’s secrets, they’ll build friendships with the gods through a unique relationship mechanic. The stronger the bond, the more willing these gods become to aid Alex with their mystical powers. Players are tasked with solving the intricate mystery of Ambrosia Island, ensuring the gods are restored, and charting Alex’s path back to her world.
