And so I gazed at the sky.
A sky with no tomorrow.
A world where everything had already reached its end.
I was all alone.
MYTH.
I was determined to stand up against that.
And so I turned towards it and muttered...
"Being of Light."
"Step through that door."
"And return to me."
MYTH is an ambitious doujin title that has garnered acclaim from Japanese VN enthusiasts, featuring a narrative that requires profound thought in order to fully understand its complex and multi-layered scenario structure.
The story begins in the distant future. The protagonist Meito Tanabe lives in the "world of light" - a world where no shadows exist. Yet, the "world of shadows" reaches out to him through Shimon, a girl possessing a shadow, who brings him into the world in which she lives.
Players will soon find there's more than meets the eye in MYTH, which features multiple interlocking story arcs that borrow heavily from Norse mythology. Included in the game is a note system and a highly-detailed character relationship chart for players to reference as they get absorbed into the universe.
MYTH also has a stellar soundtrack, featuring Kino Nei, Luck Ganriki, and Katakiri Rekka, all of whom worked on music for 07th Expansion in various capacities. Fans of horror or doujin games, like the Higurashi series, won't want to miss this title!
