As storytelling interacting goes, it’s about as close as you can get to having a dungeon master at hand, with some exceptions. During its storytelling sequences you’re often faced with choices or dilemmas, most of which are ultimately decided by a behind-the-scenes dice roll with probabilities displayed. When a campaign ends, you can even take your favorite characters into new campaigns as legacy heroes-something I can appreciate after growing fond of my small band of bad rollers.
It’s a compelling system that manages to create characters that I started to care for. They can live and suffer the loss of a limb, or heroically sacrifice themselves to buff their team or deal massive damage. Their sacrifice usually means something, though, as a poignant turning point in your campaign, but also in the battle they fall. They will grow old, given enough time-and they can die permanently. These three adventurers, if they live to the end of your campaign, will have changed drastically by the time the campaign is over, both physically and in their personality.
#Wildermyth gameplay full
When you start out in Wildermyth you can chose between a couple of full story campaigns or chose to play multichapter campaigns with no overarching story, but with the ability to choose your ‘big bad.’ You then create your starting three person party. It also has some pretty good turn-based combat with an array of abilities that also ignores a few genre conventions, while keeping others. And it’s a pretty dangerous world that tries to eschew genre tropes by doing away with orcs and elves and replaces them with non-traditional enemies for a somewhat fresh take. Unlike a lot of roleplaying games, Wildermyth has an emphasis on much more than combat-it’s a game about the heroes you create, and the story they make in the world.
Wildermyth is a narrative driven, procedurally generated roleplaying game with tactical, turn-based combat. Wildermyth is the first time I felt like I was playing a long TTRPG campaign. If you’re a forever GM/DM like me, you don’t really have the chance to make your own story. A game master sets up the story and the world and the players get a chance to do the rest.
While there are a few players I know that approach the games like it’s a video game, TTRPGs are also great ways to have a shared storytelling experience. For the last few years I’ve really gotten into tabletop role-playing games, or TTRPGs.
