About Pathos

✦ AI summary

Pathos is a stealth puzzler where you infiltrate a drug syndicate's operations and dismantle it from within using chemical concoctions and an advanced dart gun to manipulate enemy guards. What sets it apart is the ability to weaponize emotions—inject guards with your chemical cocktails to turn them against each other and create cascading chaos while a dynamic soundtrack shifts with the unfolding mayhem.

Take down a crime syndicate using emotion-altering drugs to manipulate guards and spread chaos among enemies as you make your way to the crime lord.

Fun game. Short, stealth game where you have to think about the resources you are using. Also, its free, so there's no reason to not at least try this game out

Awesome Game. Serious killer7 vibes all throughout. There’s no way this game [i]wasn’t[/i] inspired by killer7. Even better gameplay than killer7 itself at times I’d say. The puzzle shooting mechanic was cool. I’d be interested to play a full, fleshed out version of this game.

I love this game. The mechanics are simple to understand, the drugs and their effects are simple to understand. I even challenged myself to get through the whole game only using one type of drug. The ending caught me so off guard, it had me rolling the first time I saw it. There's nothing in the game description about it and none of the reviews mention it. It's genuinely one of the reasons I kept replaying this and watching it again and again was a real kick. For a free game that I played 8 yrs ago on my bedroom floor, it has a nice apartment in my head living rent free. I feel insane trying to recommend this sometimes. 10/10 no notes <3

Игра Pathos — это глубокая и сложная рогаликовая RPG, вдохновленная классическим NetHack. Гениальная система на основе слотов и интуитивный интерфейс делают сложный жанр невероятно доступным. Огромное количество заклинаний, существ и предметов обеспечивает бесконечную реиграбельность. Это шедевр, который затянет на сотни часов.

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Games like Slay the Spire that keep the branching climb

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
