A text-based RPG where every choice shapes your story.
In Mythscroll, you’re not just playing a game, you’re creating a legend. Build your character from the ground up, choosing your race, class, and abilities, then set out into a world shaped by your decisions.
Travel through bustling towns, dangerous forests, and ancient ruins. Every step brings new challenges, from turn-based battles to tricky moral choices that affect your reputation. Will you fight for honor, wealth, power, or something else entirely?
Trade with merchants, take on quests, and uncover secrets hidden in the world. With branching encounters, turn-based combat, and plenty of surprises, no two adventures are the same.
Your path is yours to write. Where will it lead?
Features:
CUSTOMIZE
Build your character, starting with a D&D inspired character creator menu. Choose your class, race, age, body type, and character traits to determine your starting stats, signature weapon, and known languages.
SKILLS AND ATTRIBUTES
As you level up in Mythscroll, you'll earn both attribute points and skill points.
Attribute points let you enhance your core stats like Strength, Dexterity, and Intelligence, shaping your character’s physical and magical abilities.
Skill points can be invested into a wide variety of skills, such as Stealth, Nature, Music, and more, and further define how your character performs in and out of combat.
Whether you want to talk your way out of danger, scale cliffs, cast spells, or sneak past enemies, your build choices open up different paths through the world.
MORALITY SYSTEM
There are multiple meaningful choices attached to every encounter in the game. Will you give a lost traveler helpful directions, or will you steer them the wrong way? Will you demand payment for your assistance?
Some decisions negatively impact your character's morality, such as choosing to rob a merchant, or attack a random commoner. If your morality is too low, you'll be at an increased risk of being attacked when encountering some high morality people and creatures, such as knights, guards, and angels.
Other decisions, such as choosing to help someone, completing certain quests, or defeating low morality creatures, can increase your morality. Some quests may require a certain morality level to accept or complete.
