MythForce

"MythForce is an entertaining action-role-playing roguelite, which stands out for its cartoon aesthetic of the 80s and being very oriented to cooperative play for four. It has many "evils" of the subgenre (random generation of levels, repetition ...), but if …"

"Despite some difficult to ignore flaws, Gamers who spent any part of their childhood in the eighties or for one reason or another harbor a fascination for that era of entertainment have plenty of reason to check out MythForce."

"Even when everything&s;s working, MythForce isn&s;t much more than a bad port of a fun, but uninteresting game. That being said, we can&s;t possibly recommend it in its launch state. We don&s;t take half-baked efforts lightly, and this feels even …"

"MythForce effectively harks back to the charm of 80s nostalgia while delivering the challenges of a modern roguelite adventure. Despite its occasional narrative shortcomings and repetitiveness, its escalating challenges and the unique experience of multiplayer gameplay stand out. For those …"

"If you want the best experience possible with MythForce, play with friends. If you don&s;t have friends, then play by yourself. If you hate yourself, then try playing with strangers. Visually, style-wise, I love MythForce. While there isn&s;t enough dialogue …"

"MythForce is a truly unique and exceptionally fun co-op game that I’ll be logging a ton of playtime into in the near future. The clever combination of cooperative shooter and roguelike mechanics paired with a super unique presentation make for …"

"MythForce is a video game as bold and ambitious as it is imperfect, with many well-conceived ideas and a captivating concept, but unfortunately, it can’t translate them into a good execution. The result is a video game with good features …"

"Mythforce is shallow and inauthentic, hiding its creative mundanity behind the insincere promise of retro silliness. This lack of artistic integrity is matched by a lack of quality control, awkwardly bolted together as it is with unrefined controls, dreadful performance, …"

"MythForce is a brilliant 80’s inspired game with nearly endless potential. While it does give you a lot to explore and discover, even more so to work with to take down your enemies, it falls a little flat, with the …"

"There&s;s no denying that MythForce absolutely laser targets old crusties like me that used to sit cross-legged in front of a boxy CRT, with cereal pouring down my face as I sat agape at the Saturday morning heroics that were …"

"It’s at a good point for the price, and its singleplayer-or-co-op structure means that there’s no issue of threatened server shutdowns to fret over, but it definitely hits its stride as a multiplayer adventure. Unlike a few other nostalgia-bait projects …"

"MythForce is a product that on paper has really interesting potential. 80s cartoons mixed with the roguelike genre are a fairly new alchemy for the gaming world. Unfortunately, the repetitiveness does not allow the title to fully express these values, …"

"“Mythforce” doesn’t have the staying power of other roguelites, there’s a fair share of grind in its meta progression and the first-person combat could use a bit of tune up. But, on the flip side, it is a great game …"

"Mythforce sounds pretty good on paper, featuring a team of mythic heroes questing to take down a dark lord and his minions."

"MythForce had everything to please an entire generation that grew up falling in love with the peculiar aesthetic of the adventurous animations of the 1980s and 1990s, but unfortunately the inspirations were only in the concept. As soon as the …"

"Some of the problems in MythForce could be forgiven if the core loop stayed fresh and fun, but, sadly, it doesn&s;t. And with services like Game Pass offering up several solid roguelikes, it&s;s tough to justify the $29.99 price tag. …"

"MythForce looks stunning and perfectly encapsulates the look and feel of &s;80s action cartoons. Unfortunately, its repetitive gameplay loop, frustrating stamina mechanic, and unrewarding progression system spoil what could&s;ve been an exceptional game."

"MythForce may have a great sense of aesthetic but the roguelike it is designed around is as basic and uninspiring as they come, becoming a quickly repetitive grindfest with little payoff."
