Reviews of Hades
4.6 out of 5, from 14 ratings
Died 80 times. Loved every one.
Smoke test: one more run, always.
Died 80 times. Loved every one.
Hard enough to stay interesting, kind enough to let a tired person make progress anyway.
Ten useful minutes, instant pause, and somehow I always know what I was doing when I return.
A perfect example of structure, story, and repetition making each other stronger.
Portraits, poses, effects: everything sells personality before the dialogue lands.
Responsive, readable, and still finding new ways to surprise me after a hundred hours.
Every boon looks tempting, which is how a sensible run becomes a glorious mess.
The family drama kept me escaping long after I stopped needing the upgrades.
Every failed escape gave me a new conversation, so losing never felt wasted.
