Indonesia has a high cultural diversity of society. One such wealth is a myth. The myth itself is a story that tells about the past that is exaggerated, contains noble values that should be maintained until the present time. Although myths are still important for today's era, people's knowledge of myths is lacking, especially for Indonesian youth. There are various options to maintain the noble value of myth for Indonesian youth. As time goes by, teenagers' interest in a medium has also changed. With one of the media that teenagers are interested in and suitable for inserting myths (which is a fantasy mobile role-playing game), the introduction of myths to teenagers can be done effectively. Because myths often contain magical values, the fantasy genre is suitable for reintroducing myths to teenagers. By playing the medium they are interested in, while having fun, Indonesian teenagers have a great opportunity to broaden their horizons on Indonesian myths, including myths from Java. Therefore, this design was used to create a fantasy mobile roleplaying game, to reintroduce the myth of Gagak Rimang to Indonesian youth. This design was made to lead to the unification of folklore myths about Gagak Rimang with the trend of fantasy genre games favored by the target audience, to increase the target audience's insight into the myth of Gagak Rimang.
