Mythwind is a persistent-world, asymmetrical and cooperative boardgame where you become a pioneer in a whimsical fantasy world.
Players take a unique role of a pioneer trying to establish a new community. Each role a player can choose in Mythwind is completely unique - one may be rooted in action-selection, the other in deck-building or worker placement - roles are 100% asymmetrical. The game relies on the passage of time and the progression of the player's abilities and possessions to create an engaging and persistent world.
Mythwind is a true open-ended game. Setup in under five minutes, and whenever you want to finish your gameplay session, pack it up without losing any of your progression. The game will live and grow as you spend more time progressing in your role and building the town.

5 - My favorite games. I'm disappointed when anyone I play games with doesn't like it, because it means I might play it less often.
4 - A great game. Almost always going in my collection.
3 - A solid game. Enjoyed it and can recommend it, but may or may not stay in my collection.
2 - I'm either not the target audience for the gameplay, or too many issues with it.
1 - An arguably bad game.

About Mythwind, from BoardGameGeek:
Mythwind is a cooperative & solo "cozy" board game with unique characters, magical sprites, engaging story and an unending adventure.
During the game, the characters are working together to establish and build a new town in the magical Mythwind Valley. They work to achieve various goals by constructing buildings within the town, adventuring throughout the region, navigating relationships with the mysterious sprites who inhabit the valley, and developing their character-specific professions.
As an open-ended game, Mythwind has no distinct conclusion. Although many players may find a natural end point to their game at the conclusion of the story, players can continue to play the game for as long as they would like over as many game sessions as they wish. As players progress through the game, their town will develop and grow, reacting to changing seasons and to the members of the community over time. Progress made can be easily saved using the provided game trays, which offer a quick and easy solution for both tear-down of the current game and setup of future games.
