Since release, the wonderfully positive reviews for Mythic Ocean have been flowing in!
It has been nearly a month since the official release of Mythic Ocean on Steam. Since then, everyone who plays has pretty much the same reaction as I did when I got to try it for myself, which is wow. This is one god-like simulation game that you don;’t want to miss out on.
In Mythic Ocean, you are tasked with the duty of teaching some young Gods how to run the universe. Exactly what you teach them is entirely up to you. That’s right, all your decisions have consequences. Do want a world of chaos, or a world of order. There are many possibilities, and tons of opportunity for replay-ability.
What the fans say!
You don’t have to take my word for it. Many others who have tried the game have spoken their minds as well. The decision is unanimous; Mythic Ocean is a must play for all god-like game lovers that also enjoy an immersive story with enchanting graphics.
“The story is really interesting. Every interaction you make with a character changes the course of the story, this is basically that game you imagined where “I wonder if I say this changes anything” actually can change something.” – “The Spookster
“Absolutely breathtaking game! The graphics and style are utterly gorgeous and the characters are all fresh and unique! ” – MYSTHIA“Mythic Ocean is a charming and beautiful game where you can teach a pair of twin deities that rules were made to be broken, deliver insults to a dolphin, and encourage the cutest little creature in the world to CONSUME. Or you can choose not to. Your decisions decide the next world. Choose wisely. Or entertainingly. In fact, do both, since this story has tons of replayability.” – aseth

It’s already a new year and we’re off to a good start with some wholesome games releasing in January 2020. I’m still keeping on eye on games that haven’t been officially announced with a specific date but will be coming out sometime during the winter such as Garden Paws (Switch version) and Rune Factory 4 Special. For now, take a look at the games releasing soon and let us know what you’re most excited to play!
Cook, Serve, Delicious! 3!? – January 2020
The first Cook, Serve, Delicious! game came to PC and mobile devices in 2013. Selling more than a million copies, it was more than popular enough to warrant a sequel. Cook, Serve, Delicious! 2 was released for PC, Switch, PS4 and Xbox One, as well as Mac and Linux. Now a third entry into the series will be releasing on Steam Early Access in January 2020.
Mythic Ocean – January 9th, 2020
This wonderful adventure under the sea about building relationships and making choices that will change the fate of all of creation was created by indie developer Paralune. Mythic Ocean has a free demo now and will be releasing on Steam on January 9th, 2020.

Coffee Talk is a casual talking simulation game developed by Toge Productions. This game caught my eye in early development due to your customers being fantasy characters!

Since I’ve played the free demo of Mythic Ocean on Steam by indie developers Paralune, I had to know what would happen next and how my choices would affect the outcome of the game! I’m so happy that I don’t have to wait very long now because the full version is coming January 9th, 2020! If you’ve already played the demo, know that there is still so much more to discover and stories to finish!
This narrative exploration game has you adventuring under the sea and meeting adorable fishy characters and Gods. Befriend these Gods via conversation by carefully choosing what to say. This will also ultimately decide the fate of the universe! I have included this game to Wishlist in my Holiday Gift Guide for Gamers and Animal-Lovers because I’m already fond of every fish, dolphin, crab, and sea-creature I met on my journey!

Mythic Ocean, created by Paralune, is a relaxing underwater adventure where you can befriend and influence gods. Explore coral reefs, caverns and more, all while talking to the local inhabitants! Now, you can try out the free demo which will allow you to experience the first 3 branching storylines. Below is the full gameplay video (with some edits for brevity) of the prologue along with my thoughts on the game. If you’re interested in trying it out for yourselves, go to the Steam page here.
Which God Will You Choose?
You play in first-person view and awaken to a talking eel in a dark cavern with no memories. I’m not even sure what kind of being we are but perhaps that is part of the mystery. You are told that having no memories is the way things should be in order to make a fair judgement. You must choose one of the gods to create a new world but to do so, you have to get to know them, ask them questions and even present to them a new ways of thinking (if you want). I always love games that let you make decisions and then give you different outcomes depending on those choices.
Meet the Locals and Three Gods
As you swim around and take in all of the beautiful underwater scenery, you can use sonar abilities to help guide you in certain directions. Keep an eye out for missing pages, fish to talk to, and new areas that house a god. You’ll learn that the gods don’t remember their past either but dream of distant memories. In this prologue you will meet Lutra (an adorable water bug), Amar (a literal party-animal) and the Twins (playful but hot-headed children). I tried my best to keep the peace with everyone and have them befriend each other as well so they weren’t so lonely. When you return to the eel, Elil can tell you which god you are currently closest to and what they are thinking.
The story had a lot more intrigue and lore then I was expecting and now I really want to find out what happens next! What kind of world will the gods create? Why is Elil technically no longer a god? Which fish is truly the ultimate life of the party?
