Hades is fast and rewarding.
constantly rewarding you with more and more. several different currencies it throws at you to keep you moving forward. that, on top of a fantastically fun gameplay loop.
dodging, attacking, and shooting, make a simple, but brilliant system.

the "story" is.. bad.
the writing is annoying, and no aspect of the story really spoke to me, other than the main idea, which is just enough to push me forward.
but luckily the story is out of the way enough that i won't let it effect the score.

gameplay gets a 5/5.
a fantastic, simple mix of rewarding progression, and satisfying gameplay.
