Closed turn-based pet MMORPG

Myth War Online

Myth War Online was Unigium's free Windows fantasy MMORPG published by IGG. Four races, each represented by male and female characters, formed parties with heavily developed pets and fought through turn-based battles reminiscent of console role-playing games. Characters earned both ordinary and skill experience while completing quests and social content. The original servers closed in 2009 for Myth War II, and the later service also closed.

Why you might like it

  • Turn-based party combat gave players time to choose attacks and support actions, offering a deliberate alternative to the real-time grinding dominant among period MMORPGs.
  • Pets occupied important party positions and could be raised for different functions, making creature capture and development central rather than a cosmetic side system.
  • Separate character and skill experience rewarded using abilities repeatedly, while four races and group quests created recognizable identities and cooperative milestones.
Before you play

Things to consider

  • Myth War Online has no official server: the first edition closed in May 2009 to make way for its sequel, and the remaining service later announced closure.
  • Turn-based encounters could become slow during repeated leveling, especially when party and pet animations extended battles against routine field enemies.
  • Old references often mix Myth War I and II; account rules, balance and closure dates are not interchangeable, and private servers are not official continuations.
