The Lost Myth | 遗失的神话
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS
The Lost Myth is a captivating RPG inspired by the golden era of 16-bit classics. Dive into this turn-based role-playing adventure and immerse yourself in an epic story as you journey across the vast continent of Ancaria to uncover "The Truth".
Prepare to embark on an incredible journey to a world where peace is fading away.
The Lost Myth unfolds in Ancaria, a land once rich with life and serenity, now ensnared in a long-standing cold war known as the Pax Mendax between the Holy Empire of Graecia and the Kingdom of Valgus, the two most powerful forces on the continent.
But this "false peace" is about to crumble, reigniting the flames of conflict. As the world teeters on the brink of war, the paths of the protagonists will intersect, forcing them to confront their destinies together and fight for survival.
As the story progresses, they will uncover "The Truth", revealing how all the pieces of this compelling narrative come together.
- Engage in thrilling turn-based battles where strategy and skill will determine your victory. Master your abilities to uncover enemy weaknesses and gain the upper hand, but watch out—your characters have vulnerabilities too, and enemies can exploit them to break through your defenses.
- Immerse yourself in charming 2D pixel art, inspired by the classic SNES era. Experience detailed maps and characters in a nostalgic artistic style that transports you back to the 90s gaming era.
- Enjoy an original soundtrack composed by Irene Chan. Relish the 16-bit music that echoes the JRPGs of yesteryear, enhancing your journey with a retro vibe.
- Boost system: Enhance your attacks and perform consecutive strikes with ease. Simple to use but challenging to master, you'll need to strategize your boosts wisely in key battles to emerge victorious.
- Explore an expansive open world: Traverse diverse landscapes, access cities and dungeons with various vehicles, and uncover the secrets of the world.
- Discover side missions and secret bosses: Take on additional quests and face off against hidden bosses to gain extra rewards and challenges.
- Solve puzzles in dungeons: Encounter and tackle puzzles that must be solved to progress, adding an extra layer of challenge to your adventure.
Discover 9 unique characters, each with their own special skills, and dynamically switch between them in battle to adapt your strategy on the fly.
- Nick: The central figure of this epic tale, customizable with the name of your choice. As the Hero, you'll lead the charge with a sword and fire magic. This well-rounded character excels in both offense and defense, making him a versatile choice in any battle.
- Ferrus: An old friend and reliable ally of the Hero, Ferrus boasts impressive vitality and strength. Equipped with a mighty axe, he excels in powerful physical attacks but is vulnerable to magic. His brute force makes him a formidable asset in close combat.
- Yvaine: A young alchemist from the enoshi race, Yvaine blends agility with prowess in both physical and magical combat. Armed with a bow, she wields ice magic and can craft useful items mid-battle, thanks to her alchemical skills.
- Kris: A mysterious mage whose dark magic strikes fear into enemies. Kris specializes in devastating dark spells and manipulating foes with altered states. Though he wields a staff, his physical strength is limited, making him a powerful but fragile caster.

Wow, you're still here? Let me share a bit about myself!
Hi! I’m Moz, an indie developer with a long-time dream of creating my own video game. The Lost Myth is my very first commercial release, and I sincerely hope you enjoy it!
I’m passionate about sharing my story through video games, and since you’re reading this, I’m guessing you’re a fan of gaming too. That’s fantastic! For me, video games are a huge part of my life. As Kojima might put it, I’m 70% video games and 30% water.
Developing this game has been a real challenge—no one said it would be easy. But I believe this is just the start of something exciting.
Thank you so much for visiting the game page on Itch.io and for your support!
And know this...
Success shall be yours. ;)
