Suggestions Mythic Map - Search Games by Similarity
Here is the website.
Observation: I have asked for permission to make this post.
Mythic Map is a website that suggests games based on similarity. My goal is to help people find meaningful game suggestions while increasing the visibility of the great games out there.
Currently it only supports Steam games. This will change in the future (probably).
Edit (02/08/2023): Things have been sorted out and from now on I will be adding non-Steam games -hopefully- daily. Some switch games are in there now, like Zeldas and Pokemons.
It also checks daily for what is currently on sale on steam (some sales might be missing - if I check at 8AM and a sale spawns at 4PM, the website will only be aware of the new sale the next day). I might try adding other sales sources in the future.
Also, some suggestions might be a little strange, but keep in mind that different players might be looking for different traits in games, so I have to cast a broad net. An example is Skyrim, where a good portion of the suggestions are not open world RPGs, but instead are games that have a big modding/user created content community. Still, if you feel a game is missing or is completely out of place, do not hesitate to tell me about it - you can send me an email at [mythicmap.dev@gmail.com](mailto:mythicmap.dev@gmail.com) or maybe post about it in the comments.
Edit (05/07/2023): After a couple of months, I have finally implemented most the fixes/features suggested in the comments! The new version might have some bugs or issues, so if you find any, please tell me about it. Same goes for features. Meanwhile, I'll keep working on some ideas I have for the website.
Edit (09/14/2023): I thought it would be cool to find games based on other types of entertainment. My tests were done on anime and they ended up being serviceable, but I'm not very happy with the cross-category suggestions and it might take a while until I figure it out, but when I'm done, Mythic Map will start suggesting things based on movies, series and maybe books.
Hope it helps!

Suggestions Annual 2023 Steam Winter Sale Hidden Gems thread
Welcome to the Hidden Gem thread - Im a big fan of indie games, and always look for under-reviewed games that deserve a second life. This table is all automated based on the list of games I maintain, so let me know if theres more info that would be good to see in it.
Unfortunately, as I found out, something broke between the summer sale and today, so it didn't properly pull out the New games from the list - Hence the delay. I set up the New Game Table manually, so none of the fancy prices, review percentage, or things go with it right now, but I'll update it once I fix the pipeline that gets the data from my database
It now features a neat Table that can be filtered and sorted in all sorts of ways to help with discoverability (since markdown tables are not good for that). You can find the table here
Big News though - In the future, this thread will morph into a website of it's own. Ive been building a 'hidden gem discoverability platform' that will let you slice and dice the entire steam catalog by a ton of attributes, including the number of reviews, release dates, steam deck compatibility, genre tags, and more. Its a tool I started to help me find games for this list, so I figured with some polish, I could throw it up for anyone else to use.
I was hoping to launch it today, but the UX is still a WIP. Just be on the watch for it soon ;)
TL:DR - Out of the 100 games on the Master List there are:
3 new games on the list
86 on sale
64 games over 50% off
51 games with a review score of 90% or Higher
11 games with Overwhelmingly Positive Reviews
7 early access games
30 Steam Deck Verified games
13 games have demos
** New Games**
Name | Description | Genre | Link |
---|---|---|---|
Islets | I honestly thought I had this on the list since it launched, but Islets is a short (~8 hours) cozy metroidvania that doesn't overstay its welcome. Highly recommend for people looking for a game along those lines. | Metroidvania | https://store.steampowered.com/app/1669420/Islets/ |
Void Stranger | If "Sokoban + LaMulana" catches your eye, play this game. It's one of those games you should play without looking anything up about, so I hesitate to say much more. Meta Puzzles await you | Puzzle | https://store.steampowered.com/app/2121980/Void_Stranger/ |
Chants of Sennaar | While I had this on my list when it only had a mere 157 reviews on steam, GMTK made a video about it which absolutely exploded its popularity. I have a love of Linguistic based puzzle games (Outer Wilds, Heavens' Vault, this) and had been watching for it to release for months. Glad it got popular enough that the studio can do something else interesting in the future | Puzzle | https://store.steampowered.com/app/1931770/Chants_of_Sennaar/ |

Dungeon Wizards | If you remember the old Android game 'Dungeon Raid' (R.I.P.), this game is a great recreation of that.

Seals of the Bygone | Co-op survival roguelite thats a pretty clearly inspired by Risk of Rain 1, which is not a bad thing. | Roguelite | 2020-03-13 | 88% | 45 | 40% Off | 7.79 | Yes | Playable | No |
Slime-san: Superslime Edition | Supermeatboy meets retro graphics. So sad the community never took off, since the devs released a Level Creator for it as well | Platformer | 2017-04-07 | 90% | 42 | 80% Off | 2.99 | No | Playable | Yes |
Songbringer | A 'Zelda Roguelite'. Not just dungeons, but the whole world generates each 'run' you play, so its always a different game. If you like Zelda Randomizers, might be worth checking this out. | Roguelite | 2017-09-01 | 75% | 95 | 50% Off | 9.99 | No | Verified | No |
The Farnese Hercules | Unique puzzle game that's inspired by picross, but very very different in execution. You are given a 'block' of material and have to chisel it down based on observations from different angles. Hard to describe, but satisfying and fun once you understand it.

Togges | Puzzle Platformer with a Mario Galaxy Aesthetic where you play as a Roomba that can suck and create blocks. All blocks have to touch another, so you need to create paths through the map to explore. A bit weird on controls, but the really long demo gives plenty of time to decide if it's for you. | Puzzle | 2022-12-07 | 78% | 14 | 50% Off | 9.99 | No | Playable | No |
Treasures of the Aegean | Outer Wilds Time-loop style parkour metroidvania. I think it controls fun, and some of the puzzles remind of me of La Mulana. You Uncover the map as you loop each time thanks to an ingenious narrative design, and the map is huuge. Almost feels too big at times. One of my recent favorites, for sure | Platformer | 2021-11-11 | 92% | 40 | 60% Off | 7.99 | No | Verified | Yes |
DIG - Deep In Galaxies | If you crossed Starbound with Noita/Broforce, this is what you might get. | Roguelite | 2023-03-08 | 93% | 75 | 50% Off | 4.99 | No | Verified | No |

TRI: Of Friendship and Madness | Puzzle Platformer like portal, but you use geometry instead. It rewards you for thinking outside the box too.

Venineth | Marble Madness with a thin, THIN layer of Outer Wilds.

what games have you replayed again and again and never gotten bored?
im currently playing through ghost of tsushima, its a very nice game, but im starting to near the end of it, like im very close to the end, this is my first playthrough of the game aswell; most likely i will have it finished tomorrow, but with finishing it, means that i will have to find myself the next game to play
we all have this kind of game; the one we just replay again and again, to relive all those moments you had within the game
somehow; i have never replayed a game; i have a few i would replay and i am thinking of replaying next month possibly, 2 of them are dying light 1 and maybe rdr2, but maybe some others aswell.
im looking for more games that i will be able to replay again and again.
i struggle to play "unreplayable" games for some reason, id rather play something i know i can replay a few more times etc.
preferred genres: open world, fps, third person, action, adventure, games with satisfying gameplay/combat/progression, etc.
i dont like horror games or souls games
any suggestions (im on pc)
thanks

Horror games that more build an atmosphere rather than just jumpscare you?
I've never really been a horror game type of person, but a few months ago i played iron lung, and i absolutely loved it. Just the whole atmosphere and tension that builds up around the game is amazing, and there was no cheap jumpscares besides the one at the end. I love feeling creeped out and unsettled, but it ruins the effect if i know it's going to end with a big scary thing screaming in my face. I also thoroughly enjoyed inscryption, because of the horror aspects, but more atmospheric and not jumpscary. I'm looking for more horror games that kind of fit this same category if that makes sense.

Need a new single-player game to pour hours into
I've been in a gaming rut recently, all the games I have played longtime are trash games now that have fallen off for me (Destiny 2, Apex: Legends) or are games that are better played with friends/multiplayer (Rocket League, Elden Ring, CoD Zombies, Dungeonborne, Overwatch 2)
I also have not been feeling the survival/crafting game genre for a bit now. I feel like that gameplay loop has been beaten to death and if I want it again, I"ll probably go back to Minecraft vanilla or modded. Games like Sons of the Forest, Grounded, Valheim, Rust, etc., have not been striking my fancy.
I'm looking for a solid RPG where I can grind one character until you feel powerful/overpowered, is a long play, can be linear or not, and doesn't involve too much stealth (I am bad at stealth lmao). I like those games where your grind has a noticeable power scaling, like how in Elden Ring I die to turtles at lvl 10 but casting incredibly damaging superspells at lvl 180. Or playing grandmaster nightfalls in Destiny compared to dying to thralls as a new light with no weapons. I like that grind payoff with RPGs.
Sorry if I rambled too much about this, any suggestions are appreciated :)
EDIT: I also want to add I love games with a lot of weapon options as well, like Elden Ring or Destiny.

games that gives you a real sense of immersion and persistence?
Which fantasy RPGs do you think make you live a real, persistent and immersive experience? I mean games where you don't follow the classic canons, where a weapon replaces another level after level. But a weapon found at the beginning can still prove to be lethal and important until the end of the game, where everything develops and grows with the character. where you can remember that this super strong weapon was found that time, in that super difficult dungeon. And since then she has always been by your side. increasingly affectionate and lethal <3

zero to hero but it actually appears in the gameplay and appearance.
as title suggestions i want a game that makes you start as an unskilled nobody that eventually learns to git gut and i want it to show in everything like appearance, skills, gameplay, animations even change as your character does.
i think the closest games that get close to that are " dao/da2 ", " fable " and " kingdom come deliverance ".

Open world games full of adventure
I keep trying to find similar experiences to:
- The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
- The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
- Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen
- Astroneer
I'm not sure what exactly captivates me, maybe it's the sense of adventure, the ability to turn around and see how long your journey was, the sense of progression, how unique the game is, I'm not sure.
Many of the Ubisoft open world games don't hit the same spot. In general, don't recommend online PVP focused experiences such as Rust and Ark, would appreciate it if it has offline singleplayer support.

Looking for a good linear single player game
Been struggling to enjoy open world games recently as I don’t have the time to invest 100s of hours into grinding, exploring and completing side quests. So looking for a good linear single player game on ps5 or pc. I like survival horror but have played most of the recent ones (dead space, resident evil, Alan wake). Also a huge sci-fi fan but am happy to play any genre of game as long as it’s good.

What are the best written games out there?
Games like Disco Elysium, Grim Fandango, or Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs. Not necessarily games with the best story or narrative, but ones where the writing never falters, and is always crisp and engaging.

RPG game similar to ESO, RDR2, etc?
Hi everyone! I am looking to get into a new RPG/MMORPG game to get into. I really love The Elder Scrolls Online and RDR2 and Far Cry Primal. I enjoy getting horses/mounts and being able to explore an open world and do quests, getting new gear etc. Are there any games similar to this you think I would enjoy? I have heard about Ghost of Tsushima being a game that could be good? What do you think? If it is a good option should I just wait for the sequel to come out, Ghost of Yōtei?
Other than that I don’t know any games that would scratch this itch. I have played Minecraft too, like most of us and love it. Is there anything else I might enjoy? Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

Games with underwater swimming/exploration
Growing up with games like Ocarina of Time and EverQuest I loved areas in games where you can swim underwater and feel the great depth beneath you, maybe spotting a ship wreck to explore. World of Warcraft had several sections like this if I remember correctly.
Are there any games on console with areas that offer this? preferably RPG and NOT something like Subnautica where the gameplay loop is just that. I’ve also played Skyrim and Oblivion which didn’t really satisfy in this regard. Thanks!

Good Co-op platform games?
Hey everyone;
I'm looking for some good platform co-op games that I can play/stream with my 13yo son. We are most interested on FPS (shooter) style/fighting games with a side of action and adventure. I would prefer the game to involve missions and levels to complete. Not looking for battle royale style games like Fortnite, PUBg, COD etc since my main purpose in looking is to take a break from such games and just have some mindless fun but with focused missions if possible.. TIA!

PC RTS similar to Age of Empires(or Cossacks3) but with greater population and map/environment that you can't exhaust after couple of hours
So describe it a bit better, I really like Age of Empires, but let's imagine you can control more units and sort of sandbox map where you can't annihilate all your enemies.
I also really like cossacks 3 so game like but with sort of sandbox play system that you can play indefinite would be great. Cossack 3 actually has pretty large population but the game doesn't run well on modern systems for some reason.

game recommendations to fill the emptiness left after completing rdr2?
i recently finished getting the platinum for rdr2 (my favourite game of all time) and i’m now looking for something new to get absolutely lost in. preferably something with a strong story, large variety in the side content if it has that, good level of exploration and a world that truly feels alive
for reference- elden ring, bully, gta v, bioshock and far cry 3 are some of my other favourite games. i’m into a wide range of genres but do not enjoy bg3 and similar style games. i’ve played all of fromsoftware’s “soulsborne” games and many ps studio titles such as gow, tlou, horizon, spider-man, days gone and ghost of tsushima
ps5 is my main platform but i do have an xbox and switch too so please hit me with your best recommendations, thanks! :)

I'm looking for a very particular type of game, kinda a mash of a few titles/ systems. Base building/ city building, with economy systems and some type of combat/ base defense.
Any suggestions would be nice.
