    The art direction, storytelling and characterization very good
    each game different from the previous ones
    Divine soundtrack
    On the other hand it is too repetitive

    This one totaly took me by surprise. I expected some nice game with cool a cool artstyle I might play for about 10 hours. Ended up playing it for at least 70 on PS4 AND PS5 :D Nice story that's delivered in a really smart and refreshing way, fun combat, progressing fun dialouge for a long time that's keeping the rogue-progression interesting and a really cool ending.

    Absolutely, absurdly, ungodly, good. An honest to Gods masterpiece, the likes of which are rarely seen anymore. As fun on the first run as on the fiftieth. What makes a Roguelike special is one that can keep the player engaged long term and there are so many little elements that will keep its audience coming back again and again. It's hard to find a flaw. To find a way this could be better. Supergiant have set their bar high here, delivering a game that will be used as an example in numerous areas for years to come. Following on from Transistor, and Bastion, it's exciting to see what they'll do next.

    Hades on PS5 works perfectly. The resolution and textures look bright, colorful, and have very good quality. Sure, this is a version that doesn't take advantage of what the DualSense can offer, however that doesn't mean it can't be enjoyed. This game is a must-play, regardless of the platform.

    Stunning in every aspect. Jaw-dropping design, addictive battle system and freshly clever ideas to retain interest from the reproducibility of the roguelike genre.
