Defy the god of the dead as you hack and slash out of the Underworld in this rogue-like dungeon crawler from the creators of Bastion, Transistor, and Pyre.
The combat system in this game is fast-paced and highly responsive, rewarding player skill and mastery. Players can choose from a diverse array of weapon types, including swords, spears, bows, and more, each with their own distinct attack patterns and playstyles. Further customization comes in the form of boons granted by the gods of Olympus, allowing players to experiment with a wealth of unique modifiers and synergies.
Beneath the responsive combat lies a substantial amount of strategic depth. The game's progression system, centered around the Mirror of Night, allows players to permanently unlock and upgrade various abilities, providing a sense of persistent growth between runs. The boon system introduced by the Olympian gods adds an additional layer of customization and synergy. By combining these variable power-ups in unexpected ways, players can craft vastly different playstyles and build strategies.
Despite the complexity of its combat and progression systems, the game maintains a sense of intuitive elegance. Reviewers describe the controls as "simple and responsive," with only a few key inputs needed to execute the fluid, action-oriented combat. The visual and audio design play a crucial role in maintaining clarity during the heat of battle. This accessibility, combined with the game's adjustable difficulty options, means that players of all skill levels can find themselves quickly immersed in the satisfying loop of combat, death, and progression.
