Abstract: Myths are fundamentally tied to storytelling, with their concepts influencing both classical and modern literature. This study investigates whether integrating mythological elements, symbolism, and archetypes into a unique narrative universe is feasible and if this integration can serve as the foundation for creating and coding a video game. Using Joseph Campbell's mythological narrative structure and various mythologies as references, characters and settings were developed based on mythological symbols. The analysis demonstrates that it is indeed possible to harmoniously integrate mythology and symbolism into an original narrative universe, supporting the idea that myths significantly influence storytelling.
