Pantheon The Legends: A CCG Based On Greek mythology

Ah, Greek mythology, you’ve been a source of inspiration for many a game over the years — and today is no exception. Chinese developer RedAtoms has recently released its new mobile game based on said mythology, titled Pantheon The Legends — now available on all iOS devices.

Pantheon The Legends is a card-collecting game (CCG) designed around social interactivity and strategic gameplay. With a campaign from which to learn the basics and a massive online scene, this CCG has a number of features to attract player, and hilariously exaggerated Western-Asian influenced artwork show off the game’s visual aesthetic. Guilds, teamwork, PvP, rare items, and weekly in-game events are but a few activities players can keep themselves occupied with.

“Pantheon The Legends is an addictive card-battling mobile game based on Greek mythology, available to download free today from developer RedAtoms. Pantheon features social play and a fresh new spin on asynchronous battling. The guild system lets you find friends and form teams to pit the gods and heroes of Greek mythology in a battle for riches and fame. The artwork jumps off the screen with vivid colors and a unique fusion of Western and Asian art styles that’s bursting with personality. While simple to play, there’s a hidden layer of depth to the card battling – build your deck and activate skills strategically to crush the opposition! The campaign is a great way to learn the ropes, with a lengthy story and plenty of funny twists. Where social intrigue meets strategic depth, you must fight together to win your place among the legends of Greek mythology.”

Even though the game’s trailer doesn’t show any gameplay, it does show off the game’s artwork. It also provides a glimpse to the sort of humour to be expected from the game. Players will be drawn in with its visual style and stick around for its vast online community, according to a statement by RedAtoms’ CEO:

“Just as each card links with other cards in the game, gamers will find themselves socially intertwined with other Pantheon players,” said David Liu, CEO at RedAtoms. “No other collectible card game can top our hand-drawn artwork – that’s what will draw people in, but they’ll stick around for the guild battle system.”
