"Eldermyth: New Turn-Based Roguelike Strategy Game Launched on iOS"

A forgotten land steeped in ancient magic is under siege, and it's up to you, one of its legendary guardian beasts, to stand in the way. Indie developer Kieran Dennis Hartnett has just released Eldermyth on iOS, bringing a deep and mysterious high-score roguelike experience that's as much about discovery as it is about defense.

Inspired by the brain-bending designs of Michael Brough (868-HACK, Cinco Paus), Eldermyth is a turn-based strategy roguelike, also known as a broughlike, that challenges you to protect native villagers and untouched land from invading colonizers.

But you won't just fight them head-on. You'll need to harness the land's terrain, ride shifting weather patterns, and master your beast's distinct abilities to outwit the enemy across a procedurally generated grid.

Each creature plays by different rules. One may thrive in the forest, while another draws strength from stormy skies. Every decision is a balancing act. Do you chase invaders now or position yourself for a powerful combo next turn? With five terrain types, dynamic weather cycles, and four distinct enemy types, each with its own agenda, every move matters.

And while the core mechanics are kept deliberately obscure, Eldermyth rewards experimentation. You'll slowly uncover the deeper layers of strategy through repeated runs. Or, if you'd rather skip the trial-and-error, an in-game guide is available to reveal the hidden rules. Either way, the thrill of optimizing your beastly potential will not get old.

Finally, if you're the competitive type or just like seeing your name at the top, Eldermyth supports local and Game Center leaderboards to track your high scores. And for those who prefer their mythic battles with a side of visual comfort, a full dark mode theme is available to keep things easy on the eyes during late-night runs.
