Mythology

Mythology games are those that often incorporate a thematic narrative that defines how the game world or characters came into existence, specially those related or based on narratives of ancient civilizations of the world.

The storyline in a number of Mythology games usually includes supernatural elements, such as gods, goddesses and demigods, and are sometimes set in a fabled, primordial time, which usually corresponds to a general corpus of folk stories (myths) that used to have some form of religious or sacred nature for the cultures that engendered these stories.

Examples of Mythology themed games include Ra (based on Egyptian mythology), Odin's Ravens (based on Norse mythology) and Cyclades (based on Greek mythology).
