Hades

Meet Hades

Hades is a single-player action roguelike about repeated attempts to escape the Underworld. Players choose weapons and combine powers granted by Olympian gods, creating different builds for each sequence of combat encounters. Progress between runs and conversations with the cast continue the story after an escape attempt ends.

A failed run becomes another visit to familiar characters rather than ending the narrative. God Mode offers additional resilience, while harder modifiers provide a different challenge for returning players. Someone can try a new combination of powers, develop a preferred weapon, and revisit the cast between attempts as the story responds to that continuing cycle.
