    Great game. It is nailing the gameplay loop to make it fun and addictive. After every run you go to the hub and even if you did not succeeded, you will have some new dialogues, events, you will upgrade the character, unlock new weapon... something new will happen almost every time.

After every run you go to the hub and even if you did not succeeded, you will have some new dialogues, events, you will upgrade the character, unlock new weapon... something new will happen almost every time. (its not like returnal, where if you dont kill the next boss, you loose all the progress. You progress and continue uncovering lore even if you keep dying. And that is great motiavtion to keep going and makes the game much less frustrating). And once you unlock the upgrades, you just want to start again to see how it affects next run. So you keep doing this loop (unlock new stuff, test new stuff) until next morning :-D… Expand

    Absolutely perfect version of the game we all loved on Switch. Only on PS5 in 4K, it looks even better. Cannot recommend this game highly enough. Just buy it.

    This game is definitely a masterpiece among indie games and puts to shame many triple-A games as well

    Crazy addictive because there's a constant sense of progress, whether in slowly becoming stronger, better, or just strengthening bonds with family and friends.

    My favorite game of it's genre. Greek mythology in a cool, theatrical adaptation around a roguelite platformer with many quirks and choices to make. You really have to play it to understand how addictive it is!

    Game of the year for me in 2021.

    100+ hours and still playing. Great story, combat and graphics.

    Holy **** this game is awesome. I don't think any other future Roguelike will be this awesome unless they have some of the Hades formulae. Supergiant Games have thought of every single thing to maintain the balance of the game. And the game only starts when you finish it! Despite having finished it on my 71st try, I'm still compelled to push forward to get to the true ending. And the gameHoly **** this game is awesome.

    Even after defeating the final boss, this wholesome rogue-lite title is still fun to play, challenging, and repeatable enough to get back to it from time to time. Hades has great dialogues and mature romance options. It's great that even if you're tired and in no form, you can still try a run and get something from it. Definitely one of the best games I played in years and the most fun rogue-lite.

    Very innovative end games design and probably the best among all.

    This game gradually gives the player something new a bit by bit before your first breakthrough and even after your 30th breakthrough.

    Every playthrough of Hades was different and increasingly more fun and intense. The boons made every run through interesting, the Greek mythology characters added so much life to this game. Zagreus himself is a dynamic main character and the gameplay and combat was always so fresh.

    Masterpiece. Completely addictive. Polished down to a t. Even if you’ve never been into rogue likes (I am not) you will find yourself completely sucked in into this game.

    This is absolutely one of my favorite games of all time. I went in blind, with no expectations having heard nothing about the game, and wow. I was blown away. The characters, graphical design, level variety, character/enemy models, story, music, UI, and voice acting are absolutely phenomenal. I have no complaints. This game has some of the best combat I've seen in a rogue-like as well. IThis is absolutely one of my favorite games of all time.

    After getting the platinum on this game, I'm happy I'll be able to platinum it again because of the free upgrade from ps4 to ps5, story was amazing, music was lit, gameplay and controls awesome. Don't miss out on this gem.

    Было бы очень здорово, если бы можно было немного увеличивать размер шрифта. Иногда на телевизоре трудно прочесть описания даров. В остальном - всё очень классно!    Шикарная игра! Людям, писавшим диалоги - моё уважение. И вообще всё в этой игре на высоте!

    Absolutely deserves its "must play" label. This is one of the best games I've played in modern history. I've beaten it 40+ times, but still keep coming back for more. The story is beautiful, the art is beautiful, the gameplay is beautiful, the leveling is beautiful, the voice acting is beautiful.

    Just get it.

    This game was excellent!

    It was my second roguelike, and wow did it not disappoint. I found myself always itching for one more run. I loved the story arcs, love the world, love the style, love the music. If you aren't sure you like roguelite, and enjoy the style, give this a try, it will really set the bar on future ventures into this genre. There is greatness in this games,    This game was excellent!

    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.
