    not a fan of the genre, but this is the best supergiant games because it literally contains all the aspects of the studio for which I love it and many others

    Such a good game. Probably a 10 but I haven’t played enough to say that. Enjoy!

    I would have definitely platinumed this game again if I wasn’t stacking on the multiplayer grinds.

    Hades was the first rogue-like I played with enthusiasm! The setting, story, dialogues and banter just made me go all in. Well... until I reached Hades, lost to him and went aaaallll way back.

Hell, I'm even wearing a t-shirt with a gorgeous Megaera artwork. Hades is much more than a game, it's an exceptional work of art in and of itself.… Expand

    I have never been a Rogue-like fan, but this one made me excited. The randomness of each run was a great addition since I LOVE randomness. simply put 4-5 hours in the game, I don't think I'm gonna stop.

    Fun rougelike with good top down combat system. The story is well implemented with the rouge like game structure. However the story was rather repetitive and so was the game after a successful run. Not enough content compared to other rougelikes which successfully stave off repetition after 1st completion run.

    In my top 5 favorite games of all time. A very strategic button masher, I couldn't put this game down for a few weeks. It can be a difficult game, so adapting to the different weapons and play styles is really enjoyable.

    This game always keeps me coming back for more no matter how many times I walk through the underworld all the way to the finish. The story is one of the most beautiful ones I've experienced, the combat is very fluent and smooth. The boons were amazing the Dev's did amazing making them feel god-like.

    Simply one of my favorite games ever, it’s so fun and absolutely gorgeous. The music is superb. It’s just a very impressive game and one of the best I’ve ever played. It’s easily in my top 10 games of all time, maybe even top 5.

    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

    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.
