Mythic Mode
/ˈmɪθɪk • məʊd/ ◊ noun
Sincere participatory enactment within nebulous patterns of significance, where meaning is arises via poetic attunement and direct resonance. Mythic-mode represents an alternative to machine-mode optimisation, restoring access to meaning, agency, and participation in sacred stories.
Mythic-mode also represents the highest and most challenging difficulty level within games. Access to mythic-mode is typically unlocked once a player has completed the standard game.
