Have you always been interested in Greek mythology but want to look at it from the most unusual angle? Then you should pay attention to Hades, which received a 50% discount and costs $13.

Here's What We Know

Hades is a roguelike game (when you die, everything starts from the beginning, but you keep all weapons and resources) where the player takes on the role of Zagreus, the prince of the underworld and the son of Hades, who wants to leave his father and forget about this place. The game immediately attracts attention with its setting: Greek mythology in a bright wrapper. On your way, you will meet the entire pantheon of gods: Zeus, Athena, Poseidon, Hades, and many others. They joke, tell interesting stories, teach us, and give us valuable items. The game takes only a few hours to communicate with all of them, and they are not depicted in the same way as in films or other games.

The gameplay is also interesting. You can unlock several types of weapons: a bow, a sword, a shield, a spear, and more. Different skills, items, and locations that change every time add variability, and it's up to you to decide what style you want to go through the hell. In most locations, you'll have to fight different types of enemies, and almost every battle is so intense that you won't have time to rest, especially when you have to defeat a boss. It gets really hot out there. And a great soundtrack will maintain this atmosphere.

Just keep in mind that you will have to die and start from the beginning more than a dozen times throughout the game.

Players and critics alike loved the game. Hades has a score of 9 on Metacritic and has received many awards, including Game of the Year from various publications.
