IGNRowan KaiserJul 20219/10Indie RPG Wildermyth aims to combine the best of storytelling with the best of procedural generation and succeeds, thanks to great writing, solid tactics, and some very clever design decisions.

Digitally DownloadedMatt SainsburyOct 20243.5/5 starsI don’t usually like marking a game down for bugs, because when the patches come in the review becomes dated. However, Wildermyth really is a bad example of bugs letting the experience down to the point that the game, as wonderful and moreish as it is, is difficult to recommend right now. Add a point to this score in a few months when, in theory, the worst of its crippling bugs have been patched out, and then settle in for the perfect tabletop RPG experience when you haven’t got friends around to play a real session of Dungeons & Dragons with you.

RPG FanBob RichardsonJul 202175/100Despite my grievances, this is a competent, tightly developed game. I would argue it’s played even a little too safe. Although a genuinely enjoyable experience, I am shocked at the lack of surprises or variety in storytelling and gameplay. This is a perfect example of a game that needs more time in the oven. I can’t imagine the developers will leave this project behind anytime soon, but I certainly hope updates are free and don’t come in the form of paid DLC — at least for a little while. Wildermyth feels unfinished, but the core is sound.
