Myth Makers: Orbs of Doom is a 1-4 player platform game for the Wii console.
In a far away place and time lies a realm of myths and legends. At a secret location within this magical realm lies the Myth Makers Academy, where young people study the magical art of Myth Making in hopes of becoming a Myth Master.
Assistant Principal Synster Rebus works at the academy and is a bad guy. He has had many of his evil plans thwarted by the academy's students and now he's out for revenge. Rebus has captured Nick, Zeek, Zolestine, Jack, Trixie, Romeo, Belle, and Felicia, the academy's most promising cadets, and imprisoned them in magical balls called Orbs of Doom.
Thus begins the adventure. The player(s) take on the role of one of eight characters and must navigate through each of the five levels in the five different worlds in a three-dimensional landscape. Each level requires the player to find a path from the start point to the exit gates, avoiding perilous drops, exploding boxes, see-saws, pendulums, and platforms along the way.
There are multiple ways to play Myth Makers: Orbs of Doom . In Normal Mode, each new level is presented without a time limit, allowing players to explore before attempting harder modes. Three additional modes offer challenges:
Star Challenge: Collect ten red stars within the time limit to open the exit gates.
Time Attack: Complete the level as fast as possible and record your score for later replay.
Pickups: Collect gold stars for extra points and try to score highly without running out of time.
The game is controlled using either the keyboard or both the game pad and joystick.
