June Newsletter: Myth Through Time and Forge Your Own Destiny

Our user base almost doubled in June. Myth Through Time opens with Olympus: Gods & Monsters, and Forge Your Own Destiny rolls out to everyone.

The Timekeeper · 2026-06-30

Welcome to our regular monthly newsletter, and hello to everyone who has tried out or subscribed to the game over the last few weeks. The user base almost doubled over the course of June, which is great to see, and we're really pleased to see some of the non-English languages being used. If you play in another language, any feedback on how the AI narrator handles it would be really helpful. Let us know by email or on the Discord.

A little later than hoped, we got Myth Through Time launched in time for June. The first myth, Olympus: Gods & Monsters, went live a few days ago, and the Perseus and Odysseus stories are already becoming firm favourites. On top of that, the rollout of Forge Your Own Destiny at the beginning of the month has been an incredible success.

Myth Through Time

We have officially entered a new realm with the premiere of our Myth Through Time expansion. We kicked things off with Olympus: Gods & Monsters, letting players dive into the legendary exploits of Atalanta, Perseus, Jason and Odysseus.

Over the next few days the gates will open to more legendary pantheons, starting tomorrow with Midgard: The Heroic Age, followed by Aztlan, Iram, Duat, Avalon and Shenzhou. It's a completely fresh way to play, bringing deep lore, divine blessings and cosmic trials into the game. It lets us explore fantasy while staying firmly anchored in historical realism.

Update (October 2026): all seven sagas are now live. See Myth Through Time.

Forge Your Own Destiny

Alongside the myths, we're proud to announce the global rollout of Forge Your Own Destiny, our custom character creator. After rigorous testing and invaluable feedback from our beta testers, it's live for all players. You no longer have to stick to our predefined historical characters or mythological legends: you can build your own persona from scratch.

You can forge a custom character and drop them into any of our 11 historical eras, and now our mythological timelines too. The system adapts to your custom background while keeping the narrative depth and historical realism you expect. The next phase, letting you create completely original stories in entirely new worlds, is already in development.

Update (October 2026): that next phase is live as Craft Your Own World. See Craft Your Own World & the Community.

What's next

This month our focus is releasing the remaining myths and developing Forge further, so that players can create entire eras of their own. In the not-too-distant future we have our next game mode to launch. As always, we'd love you to join the conversation on Discord and help shape the future of the game.

Thanks for reading, and may you find favour with the gods.

Frequently Asked Questions about Live Through Time

What is Live Through Time?

Live Through Time is an advanced, AI-powered text-based historical and mythological role-playing game and life simulator running entirely on our custom-engineered Hourglass Engine framework. The architecture utilizes sophisticated retrieval-augmented generation to completely eliminate traditional branching tree constraints, giving players absolute narrative agency over their actions. Every single line of description, dialogue prompt, environmental modifier, and plot reaction is synthesized live by our dynamic historical digital narrator component. This allows for deep cross-platform engagement where your structural choices profoundly influence world parameters, causing civilizations to adapt permanently around your character's long-term survival metrics. By shifting from fixed text scripts to complex procedural world states, the simulator provides an authentic educational portal across ancient Rome, medieval Europe, the American frontier, and custom mythology sandboxes built directly for history enthusiasts globally.

Can I play the historical text adventure for free?

Yes, users can register for the immersive Observer Tier entirely for free to receive sixty complimentary narrative actions and turn refills every month directly inside their desktop or mobile web browser. This base tier grants full unauthenticated exploration across all standard historical content branches, tracking your biographical milestones and synchronizing state metadata securely via unified cloud profile parameters. For power users seeking infinite historical exploration loops, the platform offers premium subscription tiers that grant unlimited action loops, deep context window rendering, priority server queue processing, and specialized access to our advanced Forge Your Own Destiny mechanics. By keeping the entry platform highly accessible and free to register without upfront financial costs, our community can continuously experience deep roleplaying simulations while sharing custom character profiles, unlocked timelines, and emergent alternative histories seamlessly across our decentralized communication channels.

Is Live Through Time available on mobile devices?

Yes, the simulation ecosystem is fully cross-platform and features completely native mobile application builds available for installation on both the Apple App Store for iOS devices and the Google Play Store for Android frameworks. Built using dynamic responsive web layout utilities alongside native capacitor integration plugins, players can transition between desktop screens and handheld mobile devices without losing active timeline memory states or operational profile credentials. The mobile view is carefully optimized for touch interfaces, offering custom gesture scroll controls, adjustable accessibility typography sets like OpenDyslexic layouts, and minimal bandwidth performance profiles ideal for loading text strings quickly over cellular networks. This ensures your active RPG character sessions, synchronized cloud save parameters, inventory items, and custom lore encyclopedia maps remain completely portable, updating instantaneously across our secure centralized database clusters whenever you execute a narrative timeline choice.
