Chill-Out Spots in Mythwrecked Help You Take a Much-Needed Break From the World
After a long day, nothing’s better than popping on your favorite music player, finding your comfiest spot, and relaxing to some great tunes. This is especially true if you happen to be shipwrecked on a mysterious Mediterranean island where you find yourself spending your time exploring your surroundings and helping its Greek god inhabitants, who have forgotten who they are, to regain their memories in an effort to find your way off the island and go home.
In the upcoming Mythwrecked: Ambrosia Island — from BAFTA-award nominated developers Polygon Treehouse — you can do exactly that! In the latest trailer from the team, recently revealed during yesterday’s Six-One-Indie Showcase, the developer showcases a few of the many “chill-out spots” that are dotted around Ambrosia Island for players to use to take a break, listen to some relaxing island music, and enjoy the sights and sounds around them.
Playing as the shipwrecked Alex, as you adventure around the sun-drenched beaches, ancient ruins, and stunning environments, you’ll uncover many hidden treasures, including cassette tapes, to add to your collection of unique finds. As you gain friendship with the gods, you’ll also be able to trade for some extremely rare tapes to build out your music library. Bring those tapes to one of the peaceful spots found around the island — complete with a comfortable spot to sprawl and a handy cassette player — pop the tape in the player, select your favorite tune from the carefully crafted soundtrack, and relax as you take in the soothing views that surround you.
About Mythwrecked: Ambrosia Island
In Mythwrecked: Ambrosia Island, players take on the role of backpacker Alex, who has found herself stranded on the mysterious shores of Ambrosia Island. As she begins to explore her surroundings, she discovers that she is not alone — the island is populated by the gods of Greek myth and legend! However, something is amiss — the gods are unable to remember who they are. In order to find her way home, she must befriend the inhabitants and help them to restore their memories.
Explore the dynamic island in this non-linear adventure inspired by elements of the Ace Attorney franchise and A Short Hike. Unravel the story of the island and build friendships with the gods through a unique relationship mechanic. The closer you become, the more they are willing to help Alex with their godly powers. Solve the mystery of Ambrosia Island, save the gods, and help Alex find a way back home!
