Help Test 1.0 Changes
We've revamped our generic campaigns, and it's a huge improvement! Now instead of seeing generic events, each chapter will have an omen, capstone, and victory events that fit together, with a custom capstone mission. Some chapters also include custom keystone missions. These chapters will be mixed together to create a whole campaign. Some are monster specific, and some work for any monsters, but they all have unique battle maps and stories that match what's going on in the overall campaign. Over 25 "chapters" are planned for launch, and most of those are working today.
When a hero levels up, they will now often see 4 choices instead of 3. The 4th choice is for upgrading an existing class ability or theme attack. This is a very big change to how heroes are built, and we think it will allow players to be more intentional with their builds, and differentiate heroes more. As part of this, we've made some balance changes. In particular, we're halving the base scaling of theme attacks, but we now allow you to pick an ability which doubles the scaling (to where it used to be) as well as adding +1 base damage to that attack. So theme limbs won't be as good "out of the box", but they can keep up if you invest in an ability. Check out the full changelist below for details.
Wildermyth handles Death and Injury in a unique way, and we're leaning in to that. In place of our old plain mortal choices, we're rolling out a large number of more specific events. These events depend on the character and the situation, and give the hero one last chance to shine. Some updated Mortal Choices have been showing up in recent patches, and we're releasing many more today. In addition to the Mortal Choices you know and love(?), we're adding Final Moment events, which occur when a character is not eligible to fall back. These give the hero some final words and sometimes offer a choice, although it's never a good choice. (The point isn't to make the death mechanically powerful, only memorable.) Here's the full changeset:

Our 1.0 release is just 8 days away. As part of our launch patch we have some big gameplay changes, which we are rolling out today on our "unstable" beta branch. If you want to take a look and give us feedback, we'd appreciate it. We will *NOT* be including the new Drauven campaign or achievement features in this preview, and there may be some bugs, so be warned! NOTE: these changes are ONLY on the unstable branch. They will go live when 1.0 ships on June 15. 1.0 Spoilers Below: [spoiler]

Lead a band of heroes as they grow from reluctant farmers into unique, legendary fighters. Combat unexpected threats and strange monsters across interactive battlefields. Unravel mysteries and share pensive moments in an ever-new fantasy setting that blends hard truths and sacrifice with humor and personal storytelling.
Where does your myth lead? Come help us uncover it!
- Reminiscent of tabletop roleplaying, unique heroes are born in unique settings every game. They age, transform, fall in love, disagree, and make harrowing sacrifices.
- Each hero brings their own organic history and personality with them, but your choices and combat skills are what decide their paths and outcomes.
- All heroes die someday… but you get to hold on to your favorites. Reintroduce them in the next adventure, and over many lifetimes the myths you make will form your own legendary pantheon.
An Imaginative Papercraft World
The Yondering Lands, where the game is set, is a richly layered world populated with hand-painted 2D characters and scenery. We’ve paid loving attention to breaking molds and exploring new ideas: no orcs, elves, or goblins here—but watch out for the telepathic insect-dragons and the clockwork undead.
Extreme Character Depth
Each of your heroes has their own unique generated history, personality, and appearance, and will form relationships with your other heroes. All of these elements change and develop over the course of a playthrough, as characters age, encounter mysteries, and overcome challenges.
Choices That Matter
Your hero may choose to trust the enigmatic wolf god, leading to a hair-raising change in their appearance and combat abilities. Or they may pursue a romance with a fellow hero, giving each of them a shared buff and more story opportunities. Encounters and events have permanent, character-defining effects, letting you craft the arc of each character.
A New Approach to Death
Did your favorite character get one-shotted by a tentacled horror-bear? Choose to let a hero "fall back" with a maiming that will lead to some transformative new paths in their legend, or let them go out in a blaze of glory to be remembered for generations to come.
Deep and Creative Tactical Combat
Combat in Wildermyth emphasizes teamwork and careful positioning, as well as imaginative use of your evolving capabilities and surroundings. Walling and Flanking mechanics provide clear but conflicting incentives, while mystical interfusion lets you remake the battlefield with explosive magic. Multiple difficulty levels mean you can get as intense as you want to.
Endless Replayability
Pick and choose from a huge bank of combat abilities as your heroes level up in each playthrough, and decide whether you prefer offensive or defensive tactics, brute strength, stealth, or magically flinging fire from a nearby lamp into your enemies' faces. Procedural generation gives you new heroes, new enemies, new story events, and new maps every time you play.
A Custom Pantheon of Legends
You’ll have the freedom to customize hero appearances, names, histories, and more. As time passes, heroes grow old and may retire, or else might fall in combat—and yes, some will survive all the way to the end. You can add your favorite heroes to a roster of legends and call on them again in later playthroughs. Build your own mythologies and share the awe-inspiring might of your heroes with others.
