Supergiant Games's 4th game. Hades came along and showed every roguelite on the market how to do an effective story in a roguelite format. Stellar music, an amazing art style, and tons of customization wrap around every corner of this game.
Combat is fluid, varied, and as challenging as you want it to be. Characters are beautifully narrated and compelling individuals. At the end of a run, you'll think "just one more" and realize it's 4 in the morning. This game can entertain you for as long as you want it to.
100%: The infinite grinding system is purely cosmetic and has no impact on gameplay. Earning Skelly's second prize can be somewhat challenging - be sure to choose Heat modifiers you're comfortable with and have practiced. Reaching the epilogue and upgrading the Mirror of Night/Weapon Aspects is mostly just a matter of continued playing.
