This game has a great hook lots to learn and death is to be expected but each death allow you to get a little stronger have played this a lot! Got the platinum and still play it daily which can’t be said for some other titles which I’ve paid x3 more for, the music is amazing the game play fast and not forgiving. The combination of powers and weapons make every run different and every weapon useful when combined with the right power ups. If your a fan of rouge like games then this is one not to be missed.
Hadn’t really heard about this much, bought it anyway and ended up loving it. I played it over and over until I got the Platinum. Plenty of hours of enjoyment to be had but it can get a little tedious towards the end.
Great gameplay for a super giant title ot has everything and not a game you can complete in one day. It has great characters and tight responsive controls, it never gets repetitive which is rare these days. I like its Greek theme and the powers of the gods are all good. You will find it engaging and challenging in the beginning but the more you play the more you level the mirror of night and unlock new weapons and ways to get certain boons, my advice talk to every character the dialogue is brilliant and never repeats itself. I highly recommend this game it is original and a blast to play.
Never heard of this before.. took a punt with it at 16.99. So glad I did.. one of the best games I’ve played for a long time.. a hidden gem and a must..
It’s like dead cells if anyone has played that.. but better imo.
Good game. Can understand why it won so many awards. I wouldn’t want to pay any more than the 20 I paid for it… but compare that price with 60-70 for a typical new gen game and the value is clear.
Hades has quickly risen to be one of my favourite games of all time. Beautiful art, fantastic music, amazing voice acting, ridiculously fun gameplay, excellent writing (plus you can pet the dog). I’ve spent hundreds of hours playing so far and I’m still having fun and because of the different power up/weapon combinations it always feels fresh. I would be hard pressed to find a negative to this game.
Great game, highly addictive and manages to balance randomness with expectations to where every run feels different but I never feel like I lost a run due to RNG. Played the game for hundreds of hours on PC and decided that I wanted a physical copy on console because I love it so much. Shame there’s no cross-saves on this version, but starting over in “Hell Mode” has been a really fun time.
Excellent roguelike. Supergiant Games have a pretty distinct style and they don’t stray too far here. Great art design and narrative, with a soundtrack that slaps. Mechanics are a bit weird but you get used to them in no time. My only issue, and it’s just me being nitpicky, is the sheer amount of particle effects coming from absolutely everything can make it difficult to keep track of everything on screen, but in no way diminishes the enjoyment to be had here.
Only reason review is 4 stars is because Prime delivery is shambolic.

Everyone in our house is addicted to this game. Nobody speaks to anyone anymore.

This is a great game. So addictive. Die and try again. Soundtrack and visuals are excellent all round. It’s great!
Gameplay, soundtrack and visuals, character art and voice acting are excellent all round. Can’t recommend this one enough, it’s great!
Very challenging in places but has the ‘one more go’ appeal – each defeat is also an opportunity for story and character progression.
Game came with a code to download the soundtrack and was reasonably priced at launch.
Everything about this game is fantastic. Made with love and it shows.

Incredible game. The first rogue-like that I’ve been completely consumed by.
