Hades (Ps5)

Never heard of this before.. took a punt with it at £16.99. So glad I did.. one of the best games I've played for a long time.. a hidden gem and a must..It's like dead cells if anyone has played that.. but better imo.

Gameplay, soundtrack and visuals, character art and voice acting are excellent all round. Can't recommend this one enough, it's great!Very challenging in places but has the 'one more go' appeal - each defeat is also an opportunity for story and character progression.Game came with a code to download the soundtrack and was reasonably priced at launch.

Great gameplay for a super giant title ot has everything and not a game you can complete in one day. It has great characters and tight responsive controls, it never gets repetitive which is rare these days. I like its Greek theme and the powers of the gods are all good. You will find it engaging and challenging in the beginning but the more you play the more you level the mirror of night and unlock new weapons and ways to get certain boons, my advice talk to every character the dialogue is brilliant and never repeats itself. I highly recommend this game it is original and a blast to play.

Great game, highly addictive and manages to balance randomness with expectations to where every run feels different but I never feel like I lost a run due to RNG. Played the game for hundreds of hours on PC and decided that I wanted a physical copy on console because I love it so much. Shame there's no cross-saves on this version, but starting over in "Hell Mode" has been a really fun time.

This game has a great hook lots to learn and death is to be expected but each death allow you to get a little stronger have played this a lot! Got the platinum and still play it daily which can't be said for some other titles which I've paid x3 more for, the music is amazing the game play fast and not forgiving. The combination of powers and weapons make every run different and every weapon useful when combined with the right power ups. If your a fan of rouge like games then this is one not to be missed.
