About Hades
Fight your way out of Hell as Hades' immortal son, wielding Olympian powers and building thousands of unique character builds through godly boons in a gorgeously hand-painted underworld. Packed with fully-voiced characters, branching story events that unfold across multiple playthroughs, and permanent upgrades that let anyone experience the gripping narrative, this roguelike masterfully blends fast-paced action with rich storytelling that rewards every escape attempt.
Hades is a god-like rogue-like dungeon crawler that combines the best aspects of Supergiant's critically acclaimed titles, including the fast-paced action of Bastion, the rich atmosphere and depth of Transistor, and the character-driven storytelling of Pyre. BATTLE OUT OF HELL
As the immortal Prince of the Underworld, you'll wield the powers and mythic weapons of Olympus to break free from the clutches of the god of the dead himself, while growing stronger and unraveling more of the story with each unique escape attempt.
UNLEASH THE FURY OF OLYMPUS
The Olympians have your back! Meet Zeus, Athena, Poseidon, and many more, and choose from their dozens of powerful Boons that enhance your abilities. There are thousands of viable character builds to discover as you go.
BEFRIEND GODS, GHOSTS, AND MONSTERS
A fully-voiced cast of colorful, larger-than-life characters is waiting to meet you! Grow your relationships with them, and experience thousands of unique story events as you learn about what's really at stake for this big, dysfunctional family.
BUILT FOR REPLAYABILITY
New surprises await each time you delve into the ever-shifting Underworld, whose guardian bosses will remember you. Use the powerful Mirror of Night to grow permanently stronger, and give yourself a leg up the next time you run away from home.
NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE
Permanent upgrades mean you don't have to be a god yourself to experience the exciting combat and gripping story. Though, if you happen to be one, crank up the challenge and get ready for some white-knuckle action that will put your well-practiced skills to the test.
SIGNATURE SUPERGIANT STYLE
The rich, atmospheric presentation and unique melding of gameplay and narrative that's been core to Supergiant's games is here in full force: spectacular hand-painted environments and a blood-pumping original score bring the Underworld to life.
What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Players praise Hades for its addictive gameplay, responsive combat, and exceptional art and music, with memorable characters and engaging progression that keeps them coming back. However, some casual players find the post-game structure frustrating, as unlocking the true ending requires multiple additional clears rather than concluding after the first boss defeat.
a very additicting game in good way
good game
I like the way Alecto talks to me.
addictive, couldnt put it down
It took me this long to finally pick up Hades, and it is a great game. The combat is responsive, the art and music are excellent, the characters are memorable, and the progression kept me engaged through roughly 35 escape attempts before I finally defeated Hades. Then I beat him again on the very next run. But... SPOILERS: POST-FIRST-CLEAR ENDING STRUCTURE [spoiler]That should have felt like finishing the game. Instead, after defeating the final boss and meeting Persephone, I learned that the credits are locked behind several more successful clears. I understand that repeated runs are the entire appeal for many roguelike fans, but for a casual player who mainly plays games to finish them, this structure is frustrating. The first clear already delivers the mechanical climax: you escape, defeat the final boss, and reach Persephone. That was the natural point to roll the credits. The remaining family storyline could easily have continued afterward as post-game content or “unfinished business” for players who wanted more. Instead, the game withholds the normal satisfaction of completion and turns the final boss into something you are expected to repeatedly farm for story progres…
challanging and fun.
