From publisher blurb:
Mythika is an imaginary world reminiscent of ancient mediterranean Europe. It is centered around a Middle Sea bordered by a civilized country called the Land of the Three Cities, itself reminiscent of mythic Greece. Mythika is a place of wonders and perils, heroes and monsters, quests and odysseys.
The Spirit of Mythika
Although it shares many similarities with (and was inspired by) the world of Greek mythology, Mythika is not ancient Greece – or even mythic Greece, for that matter. It is an imaginary world, which owes at least as much to adventure movies or modern fantasy novels as it owes to classic mythology or Homer’s epic poems.
Erudite readers will probably find many major discrepancies between ‘real’ Greek mythology and the imaginary mythology of Mythika… but such discrepancies have been a full part of the M&M spirit since the birth of the game!
