The developers ofRökiare trading Norse mythology for Greek, it seems. Polygon Treehouse have announced that their next game isMythwrecked: Ambrosia Island, a non-linear adventure about uncovering a mystery, restoring an island paradise, and making friends with Greek gods. They also call it a “friend ‘em up”, getting in there with the “‘em up” description before we can.

Mythwrecked was announced with a trailer via the Wholesome Games Twitter account earlier today:

There’s aSteam pagealready live which goes into more detail. You play as Alex, who can investigate the island to discover both Gods and mementos belonging to them. You can use the latter to jog the memories of the former and to ask new questions, and thus move the story forward. What order you find gods and mementos in seems to be up to the player.

There’s no release date yet, but Mythwrecked: Ambrosia Island is listed as “coming soon” on Steam.
