Myth: The Fallen Lords (1997)
Myth: The Fallen Lords is an acclaimed real-time strategy game developed by Bungie. It is notable for being the first of its kind to feature a fully 3D landscape and focus on tactical battlefield action rather than base construction. Players take part in a single player campaign to battle evil forces led by Balor, as well as undead creatures. Myth's multiplayer mode has been highly praised for featuring various modes such as King of the Hill, Steal the Bacon, and co-op play. Bungie’s online game matching technology was revolutionary at its time and remains much emulated today. With loyal fans still playing it decades later, Myth: The Fallen Lords stands out among pre-Halo releases from Bungie and continues to be a standard setting game in the RTS genre.
